Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

5:1-11 Luke is fond of balancing a positive example with a negative example. He has just recorded the remarkable story of Barnabas (4:36-37). Now Luke presents the opposite conduct of Ananias and Sapphira, who were tempted by the desire to be held in high regard. Ananias had not been forced to sell his property or to give the proceeds away. The couple’s sin was in their pretense and deception.
ἀπεκρίθη & πρὸς αὐτὴν
answered & to her
The word translated said means to continue or resume a conversation. Alternate translation: “asked her, based on what her husband had said”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / youdual
ἀπέδοσθε
˱you_all˲_gave_back
Since Peter is speaking of two people, Ananaias and Sapphira, you would be dual if your language uses that form. Otherwise, it would be plural.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τοσούτου & ναί, τοσούτου
˱for˲_so_much & yes ˱for˲_so_much
This refers to the amount of money that Ananias had given to the apostles. Peter may be naming the amount or, as UST suggests, he may be showing Sapphira the money. Alternate translation: “for this amount of money … yes, for that amount of money”
