If the apps are from the App Store they are "sandboxed" which means everything is encapsulated in the application package. Apple's recommended procedure for deleting them is...
Find the app in LaunchPad
Click and hold until the icon begins to shake and a circle with an X appears at the top left of the app icon
Click on the circled X
When prompted click on Delete
That is all that is required.
