Question

Let G be a group of order 2020 .

Which of the following statements are necessarily true?

A.

G is not a simple group.

B.

G has exactly 4 proper subgroups.

C.

G is a cyclic group.

D.

G is abelian.

Correct option is A

| G | = 2020= 22×5×1012^2 \times 5 \times 101 .

Now, 101 divides 2020 but 1012101^2 does not divide 2020 .

\implies G has a p-subgroup of order 101.

and , from sylow's third theorem there will be unique subgroup of order 101

and that subgroup will be normal.

Hence , G is not simple group.

Option A is correct\implies \textbf{Option A is correct}

The fact that the order of GGG is composed of multiple prime factors does not necessarily imply that GGG is abelian.

and Non-abelian  \impliesNon-Cyclic  \impliesthere can be more then 4 proper subgroups.​
