Chromatography
A simple technique to distinguish between red and blue marbles of the same size and mass is to use a color detection method, such as a camera with image processing software or a color sensor. This allows for the automatic identification of the marbles based on their color. Alternatively, a manual sorting method can involve using a light source to visually separate the marbles by color.
To separate red and blue marbles of the same size and mass, one effective method is color sorting using a visual or optical separation technique. This can be done manually by handpicking or using machines equipped with cameras and sensors that identify the colors. Another approach could involve using a vibrating table or air jets that can help in the sorting process based on color recognition.
That would depend on how many yellow and blue marbles are in a pack. If yellow and blue marbles are sold separately and there are the same number of marbles in a pack, buy one of each. That's probably not the case.
In order for 4 red marbles to be one-third of a group and 3 blue marbles to make up one-fourth of the same group the number has to equal 12.

A technique called chromatography or a technique called filtration could be used to separate the red and blue marbles. chromatography would depend on the differences in solubility between the red and blue marbles, while filtration would depend on differences in size or density between the marbles.

Put them in water.

There has to be 12 marbles in the group. If 4 are red that is 1/3 of 12 and if 3 are blue that is 1/4 of 12. The rest can be any color. That is how you explain how four red marbles can make up 1/3 of a group of marbles and three blue marbles make up 1/4 of the same group :)

minus one red marble plus one blue marble
At the simplest level, one would analyze the color of each marble, creating two piles of marbles (one red and one blue). If the person was not able to see colors, they might consider using a spectrometer (spectrograph). Measuring each marble individually, each marble would be placed in the device and the wavelength would be displayed by the device. Based on the wavelength (red is in the range of 620-750nm and blue is in the range of 450-475nm), the person would still create two piles of marbles, the higher wavelength one (indicating red) and the lower wavelength one (indicating blue).
