Try something like this:

VAR=`ssh -t HOST "df -k /mnt" | awk 'NR>1{print $3}'`

Good luck

This was example how to go about it. Even if "expr" seems pretty
useless to me here:

VAR=`ssh -t HOST "df -k /mnt" | awk 'NR>1{print $3-112000}'`

It was just meant to show you what to do, not a complete
copy/paste solution.

Good luck
