Text not horizontally aligned with item












0















A bit nickpicky, but item from enumerate and flalign* don't line up correctly, such that there is a small vertical distance between the two.



Code surrounding error:



begin{enumerate}

%some long text

item

begin{enumerate}

item
$x * y = dfrac{xy}{x+y+1}$

$y * x = dfrac{yx}{y+x+1} = dfrac{xy}{x+y+1}$

Since $x * y = y * x$, $*$ is communicative.

item
begin{flalign*}
x*(y*z) &= x* left(frac{yz}{y+z+1} right) &\
&= dfrac{x cdot frac{yz}{y+z+1}}{x + frac{yz}{y+z+1} + 1} &\
&= dfrac{xyz}{(x+1)(y+z+1) + yz} &\
&= dfrac{xyz}{xy+xz+yz + x+y+z + 1} &
end{flalign*}

%more long text

end{enumerate}

%even more text

end{enumerate}


Output (red circle at spacing issue)

flalign is a display enviornment that takes the full width of the page and offsets the display with vertical space so the fact that the ii appears to the left of it is more or less accidental and there is no possibility of it aligning with the first line of text.



To use display math in an enumeration use



item $begin{aligned}[t].....


begin{aligned}[t] is designed to do exactly what you want, produce an alignment with its reference point on the first line so other text will align with the first line of the display.
