How can I delete apps I don’t use anymore from iCloud?

I have apps that I haven’t used in YEARS, but they still show up as in my iCloud. How can I delete them so I can free up storage space?

iPad, iPadOS 16

What do you mean by "delete"? If it's been unloaded but you see the little download over a cloud symbol, it's not taking up any iCloud storage unless maybe you have some app data that's saved. The app itself is only stored on Apple's servers for use by all users. That data can be deleted if it's saving old data just in case you're looking to reinstall that app. And there's no way to avoid having that little cloud show up when you look up the app.
