Answer:

  3/10 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount needed for a fraction of a pie is that fraction times the amount needed for the whole pie:

  (4/5) × (3/8 lb) = (4·3)/(5·8) lb = (3/5)(4/8) lb = 3/(5·2) lb

  = 3/10 lb

Mr. Anderson would need 3/10 pounds of apples for 4/5 of an apple pie.
