Topic: Group Theory | Abstract Algebra
Question:
Let G be a finite group of order 45. Prove that G has a normal subgroup of order 5 or order 9, and describe
the number of Sylow subgroups for each.
Instructions:
•
Use Sylow's Theorems (existence, conjugacy, and counting).
•
List divisors of 45 and compute possibilities for n for p = 3 and p = 5.
Show that if n = 1, the subgroup is normal.
Conclude about group structure using your analysis.
