<span>Let x be the brother's weight.
Then 2x-5 is Andy's weight.
x+(2x-5)=100
3x-5=100
3x=105</span>

g Let G be a not necessarily abelian group with normal subgroups H and K such that H contains K (i.e., K ✂ G, H ✂ G, K ≤ H) and

allsm [11]

Answer:

Lets a,b be elements of G. since G/K is abelian, then there exists k ∈ K such that ab * k = ba (because the class of ab, $[ab]_K$ is equal to $[ba]_K$ , thus ab and ba are equal or you can obtain one from the other by multiplying by an element of K.

Since K is a subgroup of H, then k ∈ H. This means that you can obtain ba from ab by multiplying by an element of H, k. Thus, $[ab]_H = [ba]_H$ . Since a and b were generic elements of H, then H/G is abelian.
