1, and let ø denote Let m and n be positive integers with gcd(m, n) Euler's o-function (Definition 1.45). Consider the group Z/nZ × Z/mZ. (a) Show that (a,b) is a generator for the group Z/nZ x Z/mZ if and only if a and b are, respectively, generators for Z/nZ and Z/mZ. (b) Show that the number of generators of the group Z/nZ × Z/mZ is $(n)o(m). (c) Prove that for relatively prime integers m and n, $(nm) = ¢(n)ø(m).
