Berengere, Emily, and their friend Liam are at a bakery in Paris that accepts euros, American dollars, and British pounds. They want to buy a cake and some cookies, but none of them has enough money alone. The cake costs 12 euros or its equivalent, the cookies cost 5 euros, and Liam has a ten-pound note. If 1 euro = 1.20 USD and 1 euro = 0.85 GBP, how many euros must Emily and Berengere together contribute if Emily only has a ten-dollar bill?
