Prove that a group of order 30 has at least three different normal subgroups Prove that a group of order 30 has at least three different normal subgroups.
Prove:
$30=2\cdot3\cdot5$
There are $2$-Sylow, $3$-Sylow and $5$-Sylow subgroups. If $t_p$= number of $p$-Sylow-subgroups. Then $t_2$=$1$, $3$, $5$, $15$ and $t_3$=$1$, $10$ and $t_5$=$1$, 6.
Therefore I can claim that the group is not simple. So $t_3$=1 or $t_5$=1. Which I can prove. So now we know that the group has another non-trivial normal subgroup. But this is just one normal subgroup. How can I show that there are (at least) three different normal subgroups ? 

Let $|G|=30$. Assume that it has no nontrivial normal subgroups. Than there must exist more than one 5-sylow subgroup and more than one 3-sylow subgroup. By the sylow theorems, you can then prove that there must be 10 3-sylow subgroups and 6 5-sylow subgroups. These subgroups intersect trivially, i.e., their intersection equals {$e$}.This is true because for every subgroup every element generates the group, so if one element is in two subgroups, then the subgroups are equal. The total number of elements in $G$ however is at least the number of distinct elements in all subgroups; but $10\cdot(3-1)+6\cdot(5-1)+1>30$, which is a contradiction. QED.
