###Human: Abe owns a restaurant. Every month he spends a third of his budget on food, a quarter of his budget on restaurant supplies, and the rest of his budget on employee wages. If his budget is $3000 and he uses it up every month, how much is he spending on wages?, ### Assistant: Abe is spending a third of his budget on food, so he spends $3000 / 3 = $1000 on food.
He spends a quarter of his budget on restaurant supplies, so he spends $3000 / 4 = $750 on supplies.
Thus, he spends $3000 - $1000 - $750 = $1250 on employee wages every month. 
 So the answer is :  1250
