* HW 1 is in [[http://www.math.purdue.edu/~walther/teach/453/hw/1.txt]]
From theorem 4.3 we know that "for each positive divisor k of n, the group <a> has exactly one subgroup of order k"  ==> <a^(n/k)>

"For each positive divisor k of n, the set <n/k> is the unique subgroup of Zn of order k. Most importantly these are the only subgroups of Zn."

[[Chapter 4: Problem 9 MA 453 Fall 2012]]
  
Therefore if we follow the similiar examples on page 78 and 79 (example 5) we can see that for each divisor k of 20, the set <20/k> is the unique subgroup of Z20 of order k and are the only subgroups of Z20.
+
[[Hw 7]]
Thus <1>, <2>, <4>, <5>, <10> and <20> are the subgroups of Z20.
+
  
Similarily, from the example on page 78 we see that <a>, <a^2>  , <a^4>, <a^5>, <a^10>, <a^20> are the subgroups of G.
+
[[Hw 9]]
  
The generators are just the divisors of 20 (for Z20) or are a^k with k being a divisor of 20 (for the set G).
