Let $N_1, . . . , N_n$ be normal subgroups of $G$, consider $G/N_1times ··· times G/N_n$
$begingroup$
I’m reading Hans Kurzweil ‘s “The Theory of Finite Groups”, where it says
1.6.4 Let $N_1, . . . , N_n$ be normal subgroups of $G$. Then the mapping $$α: G→G/N_1times ··· times G/N_n$$ given by $$g mapsto
(gN_1,...,gN_n)$$ is a homomorphism with $operatorname{Ker}α = cap_i N_i$. In
particular, $G/cap_i N_i$ is isomorphic to a subgroup of $G/N_1
times ··· times G/N_n$.
I’m confused here: can we write $$G/N_1times cdots times G/N_n$$
? To write a product of groups as this, it’s required that each $G/N_i$ has only $e$ as common element.
What if $$G=C_2 times C_3 times C_5 times C_7$$
$$N_1=C_2 times C_3 $$
$$N_2=C_2 times C_5 $$
$$N_3=C_2 times C_7 $$
, shouldn’t $$G/N_1 cong C_3 times C_5$$
$$G/N_2 cong C_2 times C_7$$
$$G/N_3 cong C_5 times C_7$$
, and they have common elements besides $e$?

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.)
