Showing that $Ycong W$ but $X/Ynot cong X/W$.












1












$begingroup$


I was trying to solve the following question:




Let $X=mathbb{Z}_4timesmathbb{Z}_2$, $Y={0,2}times{0}$ and $W={0}times mathbb{Z}_2$. Show that $Ycong W$ but $X/Ynot cong X/W$.




I guess I must verify manually the Isomorphism theorems (link), but how should I do it without those theorems? I don't understand how to verify the statement.

    There are two things you are asked to show. Which of them do you have problems with? The problem is clearly designed such that everything is small enough that you can prove things directly by listing elements one by one.

    @HenningMakholm I have problem with both of them but lets start with the first one. I just don't understand how to approach to those questions without using those theorems?

    $X/Y={[(0,0)],[(0,1)],[(1,0)],[(1,1)]}$. Each element, other than $[(0,0)]$, has order two. Two elements are equal if they differ by elements of $Y$. So $(0,0)equiv (2,0), (0,1)equiv (2,1),(1,0)equiv (3,0)$ and $(1,1)equiv (3,1)$. $X$ has $8$ elements, but $X/Y$ has $4$.
