Answer:

  130, 32, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

I find it convenient to use a spreadsheet to do repetitive calculations. The formulas for volume of a candle and number of candles are shown in the attached spreadsheet.

The block of wax has a volume of 4×4×4 = 64 cubic inches. The volumes shown for the candles are in cubic inches, so the number of candles is 64 divided by the candle volume.
