To find out how many customers requested carrots, you can use the relative frequency. The relative frequency of carrots is given as 0.30, which means that 30% of the customers requested carrots.
To calculate the number of customers who requested carrots, you can multiply the total number of customers by the relative frequency:
\[
\text{Number of customers who requested carrots} = \text{Total customers} \times \text{Relative frequency}
\]
\[
\text{Number of customers who requested carrots} = 50 \times 0.30 = 15
\]
Therefore, 15 customers requested carrots.
The correct answer is **15**.
