    There’s a 3:1:2 ratio. If you add those numbers up you get 6.
    Divide 36 by 6 to get 6.
    Now multiply the numbers in the ratio by 6 and you should get….
    18 : 6 : 12

    Notice how if you add those up you get 36

    So: there are 18 silver beads, 6 crystal and 12 purple

    Hope this helps! Any questions let me know 🙂
