Answer:

3/10 part of his salary he saved

Since we have given that

Fraction of his salary spend on rent = 1/5

Fraction of his salary spend on food = 1/3

Fraction of his salary spend on clothes = 1/6

Total part of fraction of his salary spent is given by

1/5+1/3+1/6

=6+10+5

30

=21/30

=7/10

So,Fraction of his salary he saved is given by

1 - 7/10

=10-7

10

=3/10

Hence,3/10 part of his salary he saved.

I HOPE THIS HELPS!
