For this case we have to if Nikki bought 8 apples for $ 6, to know the price of each apple we divided:


\frac {6} {8} = 0.75

If Tyler bought 3 apples less than Nikky, we have to buy
8-3 = 5

To know how much we spend, we multiply:


5 * 0.75 = 3.75 \

So, Tyler spent $ 3.75 on apples.

Answer:

Tyler spent $ 3.75 on apples.
