It's 3.
A candle holder can only hold 1 candle and there are only 3 differnet colors.
A candelabra holds more that one candle usually 3 or 5 which can have multiple patterns of different colored candles, but you said a candle holder.
This was a good one, almost missed that little detail. =D

how many candles does the candle holder hold sounds like only one at a time

Not. All of those candles won't fit one single candle holder. Or maybe 3. One fitting for each color of candle.

Isn't it 12 ways?
I mean multiply 2 with 3 and 3 with 2, simple

i don't know, if you can tell me what a candel holder for a candle is, I might be able to tell you.

Only 1 way, because you cant place them upside down, that would be stupid and illogical.
