The Chinese remainder theorem for two comaximal two-sided ideals $I,J$ of a ring states that the natural ring homomorphism inducesIndeed, the map $r\mapsto (r+I,r+J)$ has kernel of a ring homomorphism $I\cap J$. Choose $i\in I$, $j\in J$ with $i+j=1$. Given target representatives $a,b\in R$, the element $aj+bi$ is congruent to $a$ modulo $I$ and to $b$ modulo $J$, proving surjectivity. The first isomorphism theorem for rings gives the result. For a commutative ring, $I\cap J=IJ$: if $x\in I\cap J$, then $x=xi+xj\in IJ$, while the reverse inclusion follows from the ideal properties.
