SOLUTION: If
z = {{ sqrt{3}}^2 - 2{sqrt{2} }^2 }}/{{sqrt{3}} - 2{sqrt{2}} }
find floor z. I got 0, but it's incorrect, so can somebody tell me what they got for it? Thanks!

The parentheses/grouping symbols in the expression as you show it are not balanced, so it is impossible to know what the expression really is.
0 is the correct answer with one interpretation of the expression; if you are sure that answer is wrong, then you might be evaluating the wrong expression.
Re-post, making sure you are showing the expression correctly.
