To find out who paid the highest price per ticket, we need to calculate the price per ticket for each person by dividing the total price paid by the number of tickets purchased.

1. For Person A:
\[
\text{Price per ticket} = \frac{191}{3} = 63.67 \text{ dollars}
\]

2. For Person B:
\[
\text{Price per ticket} = \frac{309}{5} = 61.80 \text{ dollars}
\]

3. For Person C:
\[
\text{Price per ticket} = \frac{435}{8} = 54.38 \text{ dollars}
\]

Now, let's compare the results:
- Person A: \$63.67 per ticket
- Person B: \$61.80 per ticket
- Person C: \$54.38 per ticket

Person A paid the highest price per ticket.
