    Step-by-step explanation:

    The total monthly budget is assumed to be 1.

    He will use a quarter of his income to pay his rent. It means that the amount of his income that he will use to pay rent is 1/4.

    He will use the tenth to the grocery store. It means that the amount he will use at the grocery store is 1/10.

    three tenths will be used to buy new furniture. It means that the amount that would be used to buy new furniture is 3/10

    Total amount to be spent is

    1/4 + 1/10 + 3/10 = 9/20

    If he will he deposit the rest in the bank, then the fraction of his budget that he will deposit in the bank is

    1 - 9/10 = 1/10
