 Solution

A permutation representation is a group homomorphism $\rho :G\to \mathrm{Sym}(\Omega )$, equivalently a group action on a set $\Omega$. The left regular action takes $\Omega =G$ and $\rho (g)(h)=gh$. Each such map is a bijection, and $\rho (g_1{g}_2)=\rho (g_1)\rho (g_2)$. If $\rho (g)$ is the identity, evaluating at the identity element gives $g=1$. Thus the representation is faithful. Numbering the elements of $G$ identifies $\mathrm{Sym}(G)$ with the symmetric group $S_n$, proving Cayley theorem:For a nonabelian simple group, compose this faithful representation with the sign of a permutation homomorphism $S_n\to \{1,-1\}$. Its kernel is a normal subgroup of $G$, hence either trivial or all of $G$. A trivial kernel would embed $G$ in a group of order two, contradicting noncommutativity. Therefore every represented element is even, and the same representation embeds $G$ in the alternating group $A_n$.

Finally let $S_3$ act on the two cosets of its normal subgroup $A_3$. An even permutation fixes both cosets, whereas an odd permutation exchanges them. This gives $S_3\to S_2$ with kernel $A_3$; explicitly, send even permutations to the identity and odd permutations to $(12)$.
