You have to wrap your equation in the equation environment if you want it to be numbered, use equation (with an asterisk) otherwise. Inside the equation environment, use the split environment to split the equations into smaller pieces, these smaller pieces will be aligned accordingly.

You should load the amsmath package (if you don't do so already) and use its \\tag macro to assign whatever number or symbol you like to a given equation. Cross-references to such equations can be made via the usual \\label -- \\ref (or \\eqref ) mechanism.

Equations should be referenced within the text as "Eq. (x)." When the reference to an equation begins a sentence, it should be spelled out, e.g., "Equation (x)." Formulas and equations should be created to clearly distinguish capital letters from lowercase letters.

The equation numbers should be enclosed by parentheses and placed at the right-hand side of the page. If you are referring to an equation in the text, use eq. (3) (or other abbreviations). If it is the first word in a sentence, capitalize it, i.e., Eq.
