$$G/N_2 cong C_2 times C_7$$

I’m confused here: can we write $$G/N_1times ··· times G/N_n$$ ? To
write a product of groups as this, it’s required that each $G/N_i$ has
only $e$ as common element.




Note that $G/N_i$ is not a subgroup of $G $. So here we are not considering the internal direct product, which requires the condition you mentioned above to be a group. Here $G/N_1times ··· times G/N_n$ represents the external direct product , which is a group under the componentwise operation.

    Given two groups $G_1$ and $G_2$, you can form their direct product: $G_1×G_2$, to be ${(g_1,g_2)mid g_1in G_1,g_2in G_2}$, with the group operation defined as $(g_1,g_2)+(h_1,h_2)=(g_1+h_1,g_2+h_2)$.



    As an example, consider the Klein four group, $V_4=C_2×C_2$.



    (As in the other answer, you seem to be thinking of the internal direct product of subgroups of the given group.)
