I am using this code for a mathematics problem. The code works but the lower fraction looks really dull, the parenthesis is doing something it isn't supposed to. What I can do about this?
\begin{align}
D &= \sum_{i}^{k}\frac{n_i}{\frac{A}({\Delta\sigma_i})^m} \nonumber \\
D &= \sum_{i}^{k}\frac{n_i}{\frac{A}({r_i*\Delta\sigma_{max}})^m} \nonumber \\
D &= \frac{(\Delta\sigma_{max})^m}{A} \sum_{i}^{k}\frac{n_i}{(r_i)^m} \nonumber \\
D &= \frac{(\Delta\sigma_{max})^m}{A} * C \label{eq:constant}
\end{align}

Here's an alternative presentation to avoid fractions within fractions. EDITED to reflect clarified intent of the OP in the comment section.
Also, use
\max
instead ofmax
, since it is a function.REEDITED to take Mico's suggestion of using
\cdot
rather than the*
. That is, perhaps, assuming something on the intent of the OP, but it seems a reasonable assumption.
