(a) Write f as a product of transpositions (not necessarily disjoint), separated by commas (e.g. (1, 2), (2, 3), ... ).
f =
(b) Write f- as a product of transpositions in the same way.
f-1
Assume multiplication of permutations f,g obeys the rule (fg)(x) = f(g(x)) so (1, 3)(1, 2) = (1,2, 3) not (1, 3,2).
