How to adjust text in table in latex - latex

I have table with 5 cells ,
I want to let all cells text in the same adjust
my first cell text from four litters and the second cell text is word from 7 litters so the two cells are not in the same adjust
I attached picture to show you my problem
any help please.

Array columns in a tabular environment must be associated with an alignment qualifier. In your example, you probably used c (center), but you should have used l to have the text in the cells left aligned or r for a right alignment.
But this is very basic LaTeX use and you should absolutely read a tutorial on LaTeX tables.
Note that there are many useful packages that extend the tabular functionality and allows to have centered paragraph, to control their vertical alignment, to align digital numbers and so on. Look at this thread in tex.stackexchange.com to have a good overview on existing packages for table formatting.

Words should remain entact when "resize column → fit to data" is done

When I do "resize column → fit to data" then this action doesn't align the words as required. The words break into parts. For example, a cell has this content : "cash back maximum". Each word is in an individual line within that cell. So there are 3 lines. Something like this :
cash
back
maximum
But after I do "resize column - fit to data" the cell content becomes "cash back maximu m". The last letter "m" breaks apart and moves down & now there are 4 lines. Something like this :
cash
back
maximu
m
How do I avoid this? I want words to remain entact. "Maximum" shouldn't break into "maximu" & "m". Ofcourse I can manually adjust column width to make the word entact / whole again but I wish there was a quick automatic command or formula or shortcut to do this.
This should be what it currently looks like for you.
You can drag the cell "border" to increase the width, to allow all text to fit.
You can double click a "border" to get it to fit to the longest text.

Google Sheets conditional formatting cell color on value in cell AND presense of text in separate cell

As the title suggests, I'm trying to figure out how to format cells in the spreadsheet to be filled by a specific color based on if they have a value in them (negative or positive) AND depending on what specific word is in a particular column. If there's no value in the cell, there would be no fill.
Example: Column A cells have various words in it (all of the cells with at least two words) but I'm focused on the specific words "Penalty" and "Rewards". Column C through L have varying dollar amounts (some positive, some negative) and many of the cells are blank. I'd like the cells with values in them (C:L) to match the color of the corresponding word cells (A) based off of the words (Penalty/Reward).
This is what I'm trying to make it look like...
I attempted to find the answer elsewhere, but couldn't quite figure it out.
see:
=COUNTIF($A1, "*reward*")*(A1<>"")
=COUNTIF($A1, "*penalty*")*(A1<>"")

MS-Word-2010 cross reference of math. equations gap in paragraph

I created a word document in version 2010. The mathematical equations are described by a number and written as follow.
a= b/c Eq.4.5
Now if I use equation number in text to refer towards a= b/c Eq.4.5 with hyperlink then whole
equation is appearing in text (as shown before in mid of sentence).
After reading into several blogs, I redefine number with 'insert bookmark' option by only selecting number 'Eq.4.5'.
Now if I use this bookmark in text to refer towards Eq.4.5 with hyperlink then a gap is
appearing in text (as shown before in mid of sentence).
Please can someone guide me how to remove this gap from text? as manually I can remove it but in print or update of document it appears again and again. If I switch on 'Show/Hide' option, it look like with small arrows as follows.
--> --> --> --> Eq.4.5
It appears the bookmark counts the 'tab's before the number too. (As that is what the small arrows indicate.)
Try remaking the bookmark and making sure you only have the number selected (by for instance using shift + right arrow key)
This can be done by using a table and a caption. The table is needed to separate the equation from the caption.
Make a table with invisible lines that is 3 columns wide and 1 row.
Edit the properties of the table so that the total table width is 100% width, and the columns are each 10%, 80%, and 10% width.
Set the Valign to the cells to be middle.
Add the equation to the center cell of the table.
Click on the right cell of the table and add a caption. Since the equation is in a separate table cell, the equation will not be considered part of the caption. If the caption is added to the table itself instead of appearing in the cell, then just highlight the caption and drag it into the cell.
Center the equation in its cell and it will be centered in the page.
Right-align the equation number and it will be right-aligned to the page

Removing white space in a table

I am having an issue with too much white space. Here's a picture of my data fields with placeholders representing the largest digit count possible in them.
As you can see, after the last "P" the values escape the scope of the chart. While I could increase the size of the table as a whole (currently textwidth), that would be a poor design choice on my part. What I'm thinking is to utilize all of that wasted white space. I don't know what to do though.
When I have all single digit values, the table looks perfect. I want the increased number size to "consume" the white space before forcing the table out of it's defined bounds.
I was hoping using extracolsep with no arguments would remove whitespace, but it sadly does not.
try adding this command before your table;
\renewcommand{\tabcolsep}{1pt}
the default column separator width is 6pt inserted before and after column contents, but this will change that. Replace 1pt with whatever you need.

How to display a content in two-column layout in LaTeX?

I am writing an article in LaTeX and I would like to display some content in two column layout. In the left column a matrix and in the right column a list of items. I have tried with tabular environment but it does not work as I want.
My question is how to create a two column area in a LeTeX document (or something similar) and be able to put certain content to left and right column? I do not want to create a two-column layout for whole document, only for part of it.
Load the multicol package, like this \usepackage{multicol}. Then use:
\begin{multicols}{2}
Column 1
\columnbreak
Column 2
\end{multicols}
If you omit the \columnbreak, the columns will balance automatically.
Use two minipages.
\begin{minipage}[position]{width}
text
\end{minipage}
