Linear Algebra Question on Groups
For g∈Z, let gˉ∈Z37 denote the residue class of g modulo 37. Consider the group U37 = {gˉ∈Z37:1≤g≤37 with gcd(g, 37) = 1} with respect to multiplication modulo 37. Then which one of the following is FALSE?
A
The set gˉ∈U37:gˉ=(gˉ)−1 contains exactly 2 elements.
B
The order of the element 10 in U37 is 36.
C
There is exactly one group homomorphism from U37 to (Z, +).
D
There is exactly one group homomorphism from U37 to (Q,+).
Answer
The order of the element 10 in U37 is 36.
Explanation
Solution
The correct option is (B): The order of the element 10 in U37 is 36.
