If you take just the number information in this question you will get 20 - 14. To answer this you subtract 14 from 20, you could also do 20-15=5 then add 1 to that to get 6.

I hope this answer helps :)

6, Bob will have 6 apples after he gives 14 away.

To solve this problem, we must first understand what it is asking. Since Bob is giving away apples, he is subtracting them from his total amount. So, now we do the subtraction.

20 - 14 = 6, so Bob will have 6 apples after he gives 14 away.
