Math & Science ⇒ Problem with Equation Format

[mfiligree]

In my document I have two equations that come out perfectly. The third one, while formatted exactly same, has the equation number right next to the equation, instead of at the right margin. Here is the formatting for equation #3:

``for a blank to be blah blah in this case is

\begin{equation}
X_X \geq \frac{(XX_x)^{1/2}{x_{xx} XX_x}\ ,
\end{equation}
where
\begin{tabular}{ccl}
...and then I have a tabular environment.

Here's the formatting for the successful equations:
``by

\begin{equation}
X_x=50.5 \ d \stackrel{0.182}{_{xx}} xxx - xx,
\end{equation}

where x$_{xx}$ = answer"

which looks just the same to me!

Presenting the problem in this way you make it not comprehensible. A minimal working example (MWE) is necessary to show the undesired behaviour. Please use the code environment when posting complete examples or code snippets.

Okay, I will study your MWE example so I can post something comprehensible. But in any case, I discovered my error - a missing bracket in the fraction!
