If G/H is [itex]\cong[/itex] K show there exist an homomorphism which is ont λ:G [itex]\rightarrow[/itex] K with the kernel of λ=HI am having a hard time figuring out what this should be. I have a feeling it is easy if you know how to look at it.

I have been trying the First Isomorphism Theorem but I can't seem to get.

Any help would e greatly appreciated.

You have an isomorphism [itex]\phi : G/H \rightarrow K[/itex]. Can you find a surjective homomorphism [itex]\theta : G \rightarrow G/H[/itex] which has ker [itex]\theta = H[/itex]? What happens when you compose [itex]\theta[/itex] with [itex]\phi[/itex]?
