My table exceeds the text width… I have already tried lots of stuff (ex: tabularx, tabulary and others that I can't remember right now) to try to correct but none of them has solved my problem.
I have a situation like this one:

\usepackage{amsmath}

How can I fix this? I would like to shrink it to fit to the margins of the text. Although, if if it becomes too small I would like to have an opinion and an example of how could I display the same information but in other way. An important aspect is that I'll have 33 tables with the same problem. Each table has 18 rows in total instead of the two presented here (it was just an example).
PS: This is not the document class that I'm working with. It was just an example to don't put here tons of code. In my document I have more space but the problem is the same.

booktabscan improve the appearance of the tabular significantly.rotatingallows you to present it as asidewaystable:If you really don't want to rotate it, your only option is to make it smaller. That either means rethinking how you present the data or squishing it. Only you can really do the former, so here's an example of the latter. But remember that your readers will not thank you for this kind of thing!
