Answer: The shop must order 695 boxes

Explanation:

To find how many boxes that holds 100,080 candles, first divide the amount of candles that is needed to the measured amount of candles that is in a box.

144 candles= 1 box

100,080= ? Box(es)

So:

100,080 ÷ 144= 695 boxes

I hope this helps! I'm sorry if it's wrong.
