For order , Sylow's congruence and divisibility conditions giveIf neither Sylow subgroup were a normal subgroup, there would be elements of order five and elements of order seven. Distinct subgroups of either prime order intersect only at the identity, and elements of the two orders are disjoint. This would give at least elements in a group of order , a contradiction. Thus a subgroup of order five or seven is a normal subgroup, and the group is not simple.
