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

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
