How do I say this in Japanese?
How do I say there are three apples and two books on the table?
I know I can say:
テーブルのうえにりんごがみっつあります。
and:
テーブルのうえに本が二本あります。
(or at least I think those are right)
And I can say:
テーブルのうえにりんごとほんがあります。
But how do I combine them and say there are three apples and two books on the table?
Thanks!

Good question.
First of all, 本が二本 / 二まい --> にさつ(二冊)
Without the numbers, テーブルのうえにりんごとほんがあります is correct, good job!
テーブルのうえにりんごがみっつあります and テーブルのうえに本が二冊あります
--> テーブルのうえにりんごがみっつと本が二冊あります / テーブルのうえにみっつのりんごと二冊の本があります。
I hope this was helpful.

You should be able to use the particle と for it. TO is equivalent to and in English so your sentence should look like. テーブルのうえにみっつりんごとにまい本がある. At least to my knowledge

I think the second sentence should be:
テーブルのうえに本がにまいあります。
