How to calculate repayments

I am just trying to get my head around a loan calculation to work out repayments before I apply etc... I know a lot of banks and places calculate it for you but I wanted to know how they go about it.

For example:

Borrow: £8500.00
APR: 7%
Duration: 60 months (5 years)

Can anyone do the breakdown of how you would come to a monthly figure to be re-paid?

Thanks!!
