Wow, Computerscience? I know guys who learn it in my school but they don't teach PASCAL over here, maybe due to basics like java and c++ is already hard for most of the students. By the way you learned c++ or java or python in school yet?((Not yourself but via university))

we haven't but next semester.. pascal is an introductory programming language

I myself don't even know PASCAL

I haven't worked in pascal for years. But I'm positive your answer should look something like this. If you are comfortable with the linux terminal you can run it online @ Tutorialspoint

Program solve_equation;
Var       
    m, n, a, b, x : real;

Begin {no semicolon}
	Write('Input number m:'); 
	Readln(m);
	Write('Input number n:'); 
	Readln(n);
	Write('Input number a:'); 
	Readln(a);
	Write('Input number b:'); 
	Readln(b);
	x:=(m div (n-2)) div ((a-b)+3);
	Write('The result is: ');
	Writeln(x);
	Readln;
End.
