Document Classes ⇒ Two columns of short equations

[dmt]

I have a long list of math short math equations that are right now inside of an align environment. It's a long thin list and I think it would look much better as a two column list. How can I do this so that each column still aligns on the equal signs, and the two columns are aligned at their tops?

Thanks.

Hi dmt,

you could still use an align environment. Just separate the two columns by an additional & separator, for example:

Code: Select all

\begin{align*}
 x + y &= z   &  1x  &= x  \\
    z &= y   &  2+z &= 2y
\end{align*}

Thanks, that worked out just fine.
