Prove by Induction.

Prop: if the (greatest common factor) gcf(a,m) = f then there is k, l with ka + lm = f

Steps that we have already established is,

m = a(q1) + (r1)

a = (r1)(q2) + (r2)

(r1) = (r2)(q3) + (r3)

...

r(n-2) = r(n+1)q(n) + r(n)

r(n-1) = r(n)q(n+1) + 0 is the very last step to this sequence

3. In mathematics, the greatest common divisor (gcd), sometimes known as the greatest common factor (gcf) or highest common factor (hcf), of two non-zero integers, is the largest positive integer that divides both numbers. The greatest common divisor of a and b is written as gcd (a, b), or sometimes simply as (a, b). For example, gcd (12, 18) = 6, gcd (−4, 14) = 2 and gcd (5, 0) = 5. Two numbers are called co-prime or relatively prime...

Let M/F and K/F be Galois extensions with Galois groups G = Gal(M/F) and H = Gal(K/F). Since M/F is Galois, and K/F is a field extension, we have the composite extension field K M. Show that σ → (σ|M , σ|K) is a homomorphism from Gal(K M/F) to G × H, and that it is one-to-one. [As in the notes, σ|X means the restriction of the map σ to the subset X of its domain.]

Prove using induction: If F is any field and f(x)=p1(x)p2(x)...pn(x) is a nonconstant polynomaial of the field, f an element of F, and p1,...,pn are irreducible factors of the field. Then, there exists a field L such that f factors into linear factors over L. Hint: start with p1(x) to prove that F is a subset of some K1=F[x]/((p1)) , then induct.
