I have two equations, one of which is very long. I would like to have a single alignment, at the = sign. At the same time, I would like to split the long equation into multiple lines. I have tried to use multlined, but I am not able to obtain the desired result.

Here is a minimal working example:

\documentclass[12pt]{amsart}
\usepackage{mathtools}

\begin{document}


\begin{align}
F &= a + b\
G &= \begin{multlined}[b](c + d\
    {} + e + f + g + h)
    \end{multlined}
\end{align}


\end{document}

It typesets as shown below:

I am aware of this question, yet the presence of G before the alignment point makes its solution not directly applicable to my case.

    What happens if you replace [b] with [t]? – leandriis Mar 17 '21 at 09:19

    The aligned, gathered, multlined etc environments take an optional argument to let users specify the vertical alignment relative to the surrounding material. These options are t (top), c (center -- the default), and b (bottom). – Mico Mar 17 '21 at 09:27

As @leandriis pointed out, just change [b] with [t] in the multlined environment. Adding another line does not break anything.

Code

\documentclass[12pt]{amsart}
\usepackage{mathtools}

\begin{document}


\begin{align}
    F &= a + b\
    G &= \begin{multlined}[t]
            (c + d              \
            {} + e + f + g + h)
        \end{multlined} \
    H &= i + j + k
\end{align}


\end{document}
