You are right! :-)
Student A sold 18 pizzas.
To find out how many pizzas student A sold, we need to determine the fraction of pizzas student A sold relative to student B's sales. Given that student A sold 1/5 as many pizzas as student B, and student B sold 90 pizzas, we can calculate student A's sales.
Step 1: Calculate 1/5 of student B's sales:
1/5 * 90 = 18
Therefore, student A sold 18 pizzas.
