The question gives that 9 egg cartons contain 72 eggs.

It then follows that we can find the number of eggs in one carton by division.

Hence, in one carton, we have


\begin{gathered} (72)/(9) \\ =8\text{ eggs} \end{gathered}

We can, therefore, fill the boxes as shown below:

There are 8 eggs in one carton.
