Answer:

Jane's share of the cost is £156

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the cost is to be shared equally amongst the 6 friends, to get the amount to be paid by Jane, we must work out the total cost to be incurred first.

Total cost = £216 + £404 + £316

= £936

Since there are 6 friends willing to bear this cost equally, the amount to be paid by Jane

= £936/6

= £156
