$63.75 ÷ 5 = $12.75
Therefore, each friend paid $12.75 for a ticket to the museum.
To find out how much each friend paid for a ticket to the museum, we need to divide the total amount paid by the number of friends in the group.
Given that there are 5 friends and the total amount paid is $63.75, we can divide $63.75 by 5 to get the amount each friend paid for a ticket.
$63.75 ÷ 5 = $12.75
Therefore, each friend paid $12.75 for a ticket to the museum.
So the correct answer is $12.75.
