He ate 8/15 of a pound of the cookies.

If we are looking for 4/5 of something, we just multiply the amount by 4/5.

To multiply fractions, just multiply straight across.

2 x 4 = 8 in the numerator
3 x 5 = 15 in the denominator

The probability is 19.88%.

This is a binomial distribution, because there are two outcomes, the events are independent of each other, and there is a fixed number of trials. The binomial distribution is given by:

$(_k^n)p^k(1-p)^{n-k}$

For this, n is 18; k is 5; p is 0.25:
$(_5^{18})(0.25)^5(1-0.25)^{18-5}
\\
\\=\frac{18!}{5!13!}(0.25)^5(0.75)^{13}
\\
\\=8568(0.25)^5(0.75)^{13}
\\=0.1988=19.88%$
