You can sign out of an Apple ID in Settings>Your Name. The option to sign out is at the bottom of the screen in red text. Though it should be noted that you will be required to enter your Apple ID password in order to sign out of this account if Find My iPhone is enabled. If you don't know your Apple ID password, then you'll need to reset it. You can find those instructions here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201487.
