With the option leqno we know that LaTeX puts the progressive number of the equation on the extreme left. With the option reqno at the extreme right of the page.

But when I have, for example a code with align option, knowing that the number can be either on the first or second equation, how come the leqno option is not active and the number is always put on the right?

- How do I put the number of the equation between the two equations in the middle or at left or at right?
- Are there only

If you want a single number for the display, use equation not align
Note that there is no reqno option, equation numbers on the right is the default.
documentclass[12pt,leqno]article
usepackageamsmath
begindocument
beginequation
beginsplit
a &= b+c \
e &= f+g
endsplit
endequation
enddocument
But can the number (1) be placed closer to the two equations always in the middle?

@Sebastiano equation numbers are always placed at the margin

@Sebastiano if you really wanted to change the margins you could use a minipage for example
