[Tex/LaTex] How to align multiple subfigures in a grid

aligngraphicssubcaption

I have three images and I want to align them in the way that one image is above the other two. Here's an example:

example alignment

How can I achieve this? For my other figures I use the subcaption package, but I am not able to align the pictures that way with it.

Thanks for all your replys! The answer that is working for me is the one supposed by karlkoeller:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{subcaption}

\begin{document}

\begin{figure}
\centering
\begin{subfigure}[b]{.45\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-a}
\caption{A mouse}\label{fig:mouse}
\end{subfigure}

\begin{subfigure}[b]{.45\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-b}
\caption{A gull}\label{fig:gull}
\end{subfigure}
\begin{subfigure}[b]{.45\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-c}
\caption{A tiger}\label{fig:tiger}
\end{subfigure}
\caption{Picture of animals}
\label{fig:animals}
\end{figure}

\end{document}

Best Answer

You are already using the subcaption package, and it is very easy with it.

Here's the code you need

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{subcaption}

\begin{document}

\begin{figure}
\centering
\begin{subfigure}[b]{.45\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-a}
\caption{A mouse}\label{fig:mouse}
\end{subfigure}

\begin{subfigure}[b]{.45\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-b}
\caption{A gull}\label{fig:gull}
\end{subfigure}
\begin{subfigure}[b]{.45\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-c}
\caption{A tiger}\label{fig:tiger}
\end{subfigure}
\caption{Picture of animals}
\label{fig:animals}
\end{figure}

\end{document}

Output:

If you need to have the subcaption numbers as in your picture, you have to adjust the counter subfigure with \setcounter{subfigure}{<num>} inside the subfigures

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{subcaption}

\begin{document}

\begin{figure}
\centering
\begin{subfigure}[b]{.45\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-c}
\setcounter{subfigure}{2}%
\caption{A mouse}\label{fig:mouse}
\end{subfigure}

\begin{subfigure}[b]{.45\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-a}
\setcounter{subfigure}{0}%
\caption{A gull}\label{fig:gull}
\end{subfigure}
\begin{subfigure}[b]{.45\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-b}
\caption{A tiger}\label{fig:tiger}
\end{subfigure}
\caption{Picture of animals}
\label{fig:animals}
\end{figure}

\end{document}

Output:
