You may want to reread the userstory

  1. The row in your table footer element should have a table data element that spans four columns and has the text Total Books: N where N should be replaced by the number of books in your table.

you should not have the text [number of books in your table] there

Tried it with Total Books:N but still not working

The row in your table footer element should have a table data element that spans four columns and has the text Total Books: N where N should be replaced by the number of books in your table.

It should look like

Total Books: 25

or

Total Books: 2

But the number, instead of 25 or 2 should be the number of books in your table.
