Answer:

30 people ordered the apply pie

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total number of people = 180

It is given that one -third of the people order the ice cream

So the people who order ice cream are:

[tex]= \frac{1}{3} * 180\\= 60[/tex]

60 people order ice cream and rest who ordered pie are:

= 180-60 = 120

Now it is given that one-fourth of the people who ordered pie ordered apple pie

So,

[tex]= \frac{1}{4} * 120\\= 30[/tex]

Hence,

30 people ordered the apply pie
