What are the ideals of Z mod 18Z?

[curiousmuch]

Homework Statement

Find all ideals I of Z mod 18Z. Then find what (Z mod 18Z)/I is isomorphic to for every ideal I.

The Attempt at a Solution

We know that the whole ring and {0} are ideals. since Z/18Z is not a field there are more. So are Z/nZ where n is a divisor of 18, all of them?

Not quite. The correspondence theorem guarantees that there is a bijection between ideals of \mathbb{Z}/18\mathbb{Z} and ideals of \mathbb{Z} containing 18 \mathbb{Z}, which are of the form n \mathbb{Z}, where n \mid 18, as you said. However, \mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z} isn't an ideal of \mathbb{Z}/18 \mathbb{Z}. (It will turn out that this is isomorphic to the quotient ring.)
