Final answer:

Bob initially has 5 apples. After Ella takes 2, Bob is left with 3 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is asking us to calculate the quantity remaining after a particular action has been performed. At the beginning, Bob has 5 apples. Ella takes 2. This means she subtracts 2 from the total number of apples Bob has. After Ella took these apples, we need to calculate how many Bob has left. This can be calculated as follows: Bob initially has 5 apples, and if Ella takes 2, then we subtract 2 from 5, which gives us 3. So, Bob has 3 apples left after Ella takes 2.
