How do I make theorems and equations share numbering? The default numbering system goes like this:
Theorem 1. Blah blah blah…
1=0+1 (1)
Theorem 2. More blahs…
Theorem 3. No more blahs…
2=1+1 (2)
The numbers in the parenthesis are equation numbers. How do you change the above into this:
Theorem 1. Blah blah blah…
1=0+1 (2)
Theorem 3. More blahs…
Theorem 4. No more blahs…
2=1+1 (5)
I am using ntheorem package, but couldn't figure out how. Would I need to use a different package?

You just need to tell it to number your theorems using the equation counter.
Now
\begin{thm}
will be numbered the same as\begin{equation}
.
