If
    E = (F – I + R)
    F = (N * O)
    H = (F + X)
    I = (N + O)
    N = 3
    0 = 2
    R = (N – O)
    T = (X + Y)
    U = (O + O)
    W = (Y + R)
when does
     (T+H+I+R+T+E+E+N)-(T+H+R+E+E)
     ----------------------------- = (T+W+0)  ?
          (N+I+N+E)-(F+O+U+R) 
(All Os ARE the letter Os, not zeros)

N+I+N+E = 13
F+O+U+R =13
=> (N+I+N+E)- (F+O+U+R)= 0
Therefore, T+W+O  is an indeterminate quantity.
