Hey! :o

Let $P$ be a $p$-Sylow subgroup in $G$ and $N=N_G(P)$.

I want to show that there is no proper normal subgroup $H$ of $G$ that contains $N$.
We suppose that there is a proper normal subgroup $H$ of $G$ that contains $N$, $$N\leq H<G$$

Then $[G:N]=[G:H][H:N]$, with $[G:H]>1$.

How can we find a contradicion? (Wondering)

Do we use the definition of a normal subgroup? (Wondering)

Do we maybe use Frattini Argument? (Wondering)

By Frattini Argument we have that $G=HN_G(P)$.

Since $H$ is a normal subgroup of $H$ and since $N_G(P)\leq H$, we have that $HN_G(P)\subseteq H \Rightarrow G\subseteq H$.

We have that $H\subseteq G$.

So, it holds that $G=H$. This is a contradiction, since $H$ is a proper subgroup of $G$. Is this correct? (Wondering)

This is the question, I understand the concept, in ##\mathbb{Z_n}## an element is a is a unit if and only if gcd( a,n) =1. My understanding of backwards substitution, ... i have using Euclidean algorithm, ##471 = 3⋅121 + 108## ##121 = 1⋅108 + 13## ##108 =8⋅13+4## ##13=3⋅4+1## ##4=4⋅1+0## using back-substitution, ##1=13-3⋅4## ##=(121-1⋅108)-3(108-8⋅13)## ... ##= 121-(471-3⋅121)-3⋅471+9⋅121+24⋅121-24(471-3⋅121## ##=121-471+3⋅121-3⋅471+9⋅121+24⋅121-24⋅471+72⋅121##...
