Which Battle of the Marne do you mean — the First (6–12 September 1914) or the Second (July–August 1918)?
Quick answer (estimates vary by source):
- First Battle of the Marne (Sept 1914): roughly 400,000–500,000 total casualties (killed, wounded and missing). Commonly cited breakdown is about 250,000 Allied (mostly French, plus ~12–13,000 British) and roughly 200,000–250,000 German casualties.
- Second Battle of the Marne (July–Aug 1918): smaller but still heavy losses — commonly cited combined casualties are on the order of 150,000–300,000 (estimates differ by belligerent and counting method).
If you tell me which one you want or how precise you need (killed vs wounded vs missing), I can give a tighter figure and sources.
