To find the price of each ticket, you can divide the total amount of money collected by the number of tickets sold.
Given that Peyton sold a total of $256.20 to 6 people, the calculation is:
\[ \text{Price per ticket} = \frac{\text{Total Amount}}{\text{Number of People}} = \frac{256.20}{6} \]
Calculating this gives:
\[ \frac{256.20}{6} = 42.70 \]
Therefore, each ticket was sold for $42.70.
