Let G be a finite group and H a subgroup of G. Let a be an element of G and aH = {ah : h is an element of H} be a left coset of H. If b is an element of G as well and the intersection of aH bH is non-empty then aH and bH contain the same number of elements in G. Thus conclude that the number of elements in H, o(H), divides the number of elements...
