In this MWE I get an error.
My aim is that the "6" is appearing directly beneath the "2".

usepackageamsmath
begindocument
beginalign*
sqrt1 & 2345= \
& 6
endalign*
enddocument

  • There are a number of ways to achieve this. Do you have a specific goal in mind other than placing one number underneath another?

  • @Werner In principle it's only about placing numbers. My goal is typesetting an algorithm similar to divison. I specified my question now in a new case called "Alignment and phantom". (I know about the package xlop but think this does not help here).

You cannot use alignment points (&) inside an sqrt structure. Instead, here I use phantom to provide the requested buffer.



documentclassarticle
usepackageamsmath
begindocument
beginalign*
sqrt1 2345= \
6phantom345 =
endalign*
enddocument


enter image description here



If you want the rows closer together, use something like \[-6pt] as the row separator.
