contents Much progress has been made in classifying when the weak Lefschetz property holds for $A=\mathbb{F}[x,y,z]/I$ where $\text{char}(\mathbb{F})=0$ and $I=(x_{1}^{d_{1}},y^{d_{2}},z^{d_{3}},x^{a_{1}}y^{a_{2}}z^{a_{3}})$ is a monomial almost complete intersection. We connect this problem to the setting of two variables through a certain relation. In so doing, we are led to determine explicit formulas for the generators of the colon ideal $(x^{d_{1}},y^{d_{2}}):(x+y)^{a_{3}}$. With these generators in hand, we construct a matrix and show that failure of WLP for $A$ is dictated by the vanishing of a certain polynomial (namely the determinant of our matrix) when $A$ is level. We further show in the level case that a conjecture first posed by Migliore, Miró-Roig, and Nagel is true in a few new cases.
