Facts:
MR Price takes his wife + two children
The price of adult's ticket is 2 times higher that child's
They paid $12.6 in total

Answer:
X is the price of child's ticket so equation will look:

2x (fathers' ticket) + 2x (mother's ticket) + x (first child) + x (second child) = $12.6 (total price)

6x = 12.6
X = 2.1

Child's ticket costs $2.1
