The ratio of brown marbles to blue marbles is 3:2.

We can take note of what we know:

• There are 18 brown marbles
• There are 12 blue marbles
• There are 36 total marbles

Let’s plug the ratio of brown:blue marbles in:

18:12

Dividing both numbers by 6 will result in 3:2.

Therefore, the ratio of brown to blue marbles is 3:2 with there being more brown marbles present.
