Newline command does not work in latex formula in Libre Office

I am using Libre Office Writer 4.2.8.2 in Ubuntu 14.04.

When I select Insert->Object->Formula and write some formula like <some formula> newline <some formula> it renders as <some formula> ? <some formula> (question mark is inverted upside down) while I want linebreak.

What am I doing wrong?

It may be that you are writing something like: 3 + newline 4 = 7. The "+" operator expects two operands. The equation editor expects newlines to be placed after an operator which expects two operands. Try this: 3 + 4 = 7 "and" 4 - 3 = 1.
