Equation Number Issue in simple Formula

Post by Mark J »

I want to typeset this equation.

Code: Select all

\begin{equation}
  \sqrt{\beta_{1}}={\psi_{3}}(T)={\frac{E((T-\mu)^{3})}{(E(T-{\mu})^{2})^\frac{3}{2}}} 
\end{equation}
When I try to compile this, I get an error saying this.
You cant use \eqno in math mode
Any help is appreciated.

Hi Mark,

welcome to the forum!

There's no problem in the formula, the error is caused somewhere else. In general, try posting a Infominimal working example which shows the problem.

Click on "Open in writeLaTeX" to easily verify that the formel works.
