Answer:
The pencil is £1 and the pen is £2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the pencil be p and let the pen be f.
5p + 3f = 11
4p + 6f = 16
the top one multiplies by two:
10p + 6f = 22
4p + 6f = 16 subtract
6p = £6
pencil = £1
Then you substitute the value of the pencil into the equation and find the value of the pen.
