8 Colored pencils costs $3.  They have a total of 696.  Each one cost the store $1 to buy.

Revenue - Costs = Profit

Step 1: 696/8 = 87 (Total amount of boxes sold)
Step 2: 87 x $3 = 261 (Total $ after selling)
Step 3: 87 x $1 = 87 (Cost to order from pencil factory)
Step 4: 261 - 87 = 174

So the Store's total profit is $174 after paying the Pencil Company.

Hope this helped you!
