Answer:

14 apples, 10 bananas

Step-by-step explanation:

.07 * 12 = .84 (12 apples at 7 pence/per = 84 pence)

5 - .84 = 4.16 (4.16 pound remaining)

4.16/.4 = 10.4 (you can buy 10 bananas with 4.16 pounds, with .16 pence remaining)

.16 / .7 = 2.3 (you can buy two more apples with 16 pence)

Hope this helps.
