18*3/9=6
To find the number of tire swings out of the total 18 swings, you need to calculate 3/9 of 18.
First, divide 18 by 9 to determine the value of 1/9 of 18.
18 รท 9 = 2
So, 1/9 of 18 is 2.
Now, multiply the value of 1/9 by 3 (since there are 3/9 tire swings).
2 x 3 = 6
Therefore, there are 6 tire swings out of the total 18 swings.
