Solution

The correct option is B candles
Nouns are words that name people, things, places, animals, etc.
We form the plural noun by adding an 's' to it.
Option B: 'Candles' is the plural form of the noun 'candle'. Hence option B is correct.
Option A: 'Candle' is a singular noun that names an object producing light. It's not a plural noun and hence A is wrong.
Option C is wrong because 'A': 'candle' is not a plural noun.
Option D is wrong because the answer lies in B.
