What is the best way to reduce the space generated just before the second item?

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\begin{enumerate}
  \item Item 1
  \item \begin{equation}\label{eq:1} x=1 \end{equation}
  \item Look at \eqref{eq:1}
\end{enumerate}
\end{document}

So that the item number is on the same line as the equation. I know I can use inline math ($x=1$) but then I cannot reference the equation in the last item.

EDIT: Made a minimal example

  • Welcome to TeX.SX!! It is better to post a full minimal working example that starts with a \documentclass command, has a minimal preamble and then \begin{document}...\end{document}. Unless the problem is a compilation error, the code should compile and be as small as possible to demonstrate your problem. This makes it much easier for people to help you --- and much ore likely that they will! –  Feb 22 '16 at 13:43
  • I'd try using \vpace{-2mm}. –  Feb 22 '16 at 13:44

    isn't it rather confusing to have both an item number and an equation number for the same thing? You could use inline math, then the \label would refer to the item number. – David Carlisle Feb 22 '16 at 13:44
  • In my article, I actually reference the equation much later, so a simple reference to the item number is not enough. – Tohiko Feb 22 '16 at 13:52
