Answer:3,15,18.

Explanation:

6:1:5 total ratio =6+1+5=12 so you’ll take all the numbers at different times so 6 will be divided by 12 and multiplied by36 (6/12)36= 18so the first number is nine do the same thing for the next ratio (1/12)36=3 thirdly(5/12)36=15 now add the three numbers to check whether they sum up to36(18+3+15=36)
