The fewest number of vegetables that can be used to make this salad is 4

Therefore, option (3) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Give ratios of carrots to cucumbers

3:9, 4:12, 6:18 and 7:21

We can see that the ratio of carrots and cucumbers is constant and this ratio is 1:3

Therefore, the salad can be prepared if we use only one carrot and 3 cucumbers

As the ratio of carrot to cucumber will still be 1:3

Therefore, total number of vegetables to be used = 1 + 3 = 4

Hope this answer is helpful.
