The cost of one ticket will be £8.20

Explanation

Suppose, the cost of one ticket is
x

As the offer says "buy 3 tickets and get a ticket free" , it means they actually need to pay for 3 tickets.

So, the total cost of 3 tickets
=3x

Each of four friends pay £6.15 , so the total amount they pay
=\£6.15 *4 = \£24.60

Thus, the equation will be .....


3x=24.60\\ \\ x=(24.60)/(3)=8.20

So, the cost of one ticket will be £8.20
