The answer is either 20 or 15, depending on whether you have 20 apples after giving your friends 5, or if you started with 20 apples and then gave away 5. The word "gave" is the key.

You have 20 apples - you started out with 25 and gave away 5.

you have 20 apples left
you started with 25, and you gave 5
if it was 15 apples left, the question would be. "i have 20 applies, i GIVE 5 apples to my friends"

You have 20 apples and you have 25 apples initially. You gave away 5 so you now have 20 apples.

You already said; I "have" 20 apples, present tense, not I "had" 20 apples. So you have 20 apples.
