Equations at left

Post by NELLLY »

Hi
when I use eqnarray environment, the equatios are centered. What can I do to get my formulas situated at the left.
Thanks

At first read a paper why not to use the eqnarray environment [1]. For left aligned equations you need the fleqn option for the document class. If necessary, modify the length \mathindent.
