Solution:

I figured out the expression should be:


(z)/(y - x)

Where x = 8, y = 12, and z = 24

Replacing for the values of the variables, we have:


(24)/(12 -8 ) = (24)/(4)

Therefore, final answer
= 6

(Note: each of the variables was only used once, as the question expects)

I hope this helps.
