Answer 1

let x =income he saves

1/3+1/2+x=1

x=1-5/6

x=1/6

Answer 2

Answer:

He saves 1/6 of his income.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of his income that is used is

1/3 + 1/2

= 2/6 + 3/6             [ putting the fractions over a common denominator ]

= ( 2 + 3 ) / 6

= 5 / 6

So he used up 5/6 of his income.

The amount that he has left for saving is

1 - 5/6

= 6/6 - 5/6

= ( 6 - 5 ) / 6

= 1/6
