Answer:

Sasha spent $4 more than Malachi.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pens are selling at the rate of 3 pens for 6 dollars.

Therefore, cost of one pen = @@MATH_TOKEN_0@@

                                             = $2

Now Sasha bought 3 pens so the cost of 3 pens = 3×2 = $6

Malachi bought 1 pen so Malachi spent for one pen = $2

Difference between Sasha and Malachi expenditure = $6 - $2

= $4

Therefore, Sasha spent $4 more than Malachi.
