Answer

30 tyres\text{30 tyres}

Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Determine the total number of parts in the ratio.

    The ratio for tyre swings, balancing beams, and climbing walls is 3:2:1.

    Total parts=3+2+1=6\text{Total parts} = 3 + 2 + 1 = 6
  2. Calculate the value of one part.

    There are 60 tyres in total.

    Value of one part=60 tyres6 parts\text{Value of one part} = \frac{60 \text{ tyres}}{6 \text{ parts}} Value of one part=10 tyres/part\text{Value of one part} = 10 \text{ tyres/part}
  3. Calculate the number of tyres used for tyre swings.

    Tyre swings correspond to 3 parts of the ratio.

    Tyres for swings=3×10 tyres/part\text{Tyres for swings} = 3 \times 10 \text{ tyres/part} Tyres for swings=30 tyres\text{Tyres for swings} = 30 \text{ tyres}

    The number of tyres used for the tyre swings is 30 tyres\text{30 tyres}.
