she bought 6 books in all because if you divide the whole number of all the books in all which is $32 divide that by 4 so..

32
÷4=8

so thats just the 4 books then she buys 16 more dollars worth that which you then multiply 4 times 8 which give you 16 so you then add the 4 books to the other 2 books spent on the next day

ANSWER: 6 BOOKS IN ALL
