The total number of persons standing in the line waiting for ordering pizza are 5.

Explanation:

Then the third place will be occupied by any remaining 3 persons as the front two places are already occupied.

Similarly the fourth place will be taken by any of the remaining two people. And lastly the last place will b filled by the last remaining person.

So the total number of ways will be 5*4*3*2*1 = 120 ways that is given in the question.
