The integers modulo the even integers
Builds on IntegersQuotient groupIntegers modulo n
Example
Let be the integers with addition, and let be the even integers. is normal, because is abelian. has two cosets: , the even integers, and , the odd integers. The sum of two odd integers is even, so . Thus the quotient group has two elements, with identity . It is the integers modulo .
