Help with tuplet
I've been trying to figure out to enter this specific nested tuplet into Musescore. Can anybody help? Thank you.

What is the outer tuplet's total duration? Might be a half note. Creating a triplet from a half note gives 3 quarter notes or 6 8th, then combining the last 5 of these 8th and creating a sextuplet from this would give 6 8th or 3 quarters, like your images shows
Problem is that there is no single duration worth 5 8th, so not way to create a tuplet from it

And it is a half note duration.
What is the time signature? Is that the entire measure? ( there's no barline at the start of the measure).

Jojo's assessment is correct. If it weren't nested there would be a way to do the 6:5, but you cannot put a measure rest under a tuplet.
You can sort of get it to look like you want but it's not easy. It involves creating a 5/8 bar just to get that 6:5 tuplet, making some other bar length adjustments and moving a few things around then hiding some. You could also throw in a few invisible tempo changes to make playback less of a train-wreck that I have managed.

If display is your only concern, here's an easier way with lines and text for the 6:5.
