Homework Statement
If J is a subgroup of G whose order is a power of a pirme p, prove that J must be contained in a Sylow p-subgroup of G.
(Take H to be a Sylow p-subgroup of G and let X be the set of left cosets of H. Define an action of G on X by g(xH) = gxH and consider the induced action of J on X)
