After solving, check:
Most problems ask you to show that a group of a certain order (e.g., ) is not simple. The Strategy: Use the third Sylow Theorem ( ) to limit the possible number of Sylow -subgroups. If , the subgroup is normal, and the group is not simple. 3. Study Tips for Chapter 4 Exercises Draw the Orbits: For small symmetric groups like S3cap S sub 3 D8cap D sub 8
