Answer:

$9

Explanation:

Since all 6 of them used $2-off coupons, you can add $12 to the total they spent. This will get the total cost without the coupons. Since $54 is the total without coupons, you can divide the amount of tickets there were, which is 6. So the answer is $9 for each person without a coupon. Hope this helps :)
