When I include a center-aligned equation inside of a list, the equation is not aligned to the center of the page. Instead, it is aligned to the center of the longest line in the list. Observe:
- Here's some text.
$ 1 + 1 = 2 $
When not in a list, an equation looks like:
$ 2 + 2 = 4 $
- Here is a line that wraps all the way around. As you can see, the equation below has the same alignment as equations that are not in a list:
$ 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2 $
Notice how the first equation, “1 + 1 = 2,” is displayed to the left of the other two equations because the text in the list containing it does not reach the right end of the page.
I don’t want this behavior. How do I make it so that by default, the three equations in this example are all aligned in the same way, at the center of the page?
