Order Equal to 315

Let $\mid G \mid = 315 = 3^{3} \times 5 \times 7$. Then by Sylow's Theorem:

\begin{displaymath}\begin{tabular}{\vert c\vert c\vert l\vert} \hline
prime & Sy...
...
5 & 5 & 1, 21 \\ \hline
7 & 7 & 1, 15 \\ \hline
\end{tabular} \end{displaymath}

If G is simple then n5 = 21, and n3 = 7. But then $\mid
N_{G}(Syl_{3}) \mid = 135 = 5 \times 27$, and since this is a group of order pq it has a normal Syl5 making $\mid G:N_{G}(Syl_{5}) \mid
\le 7$. Therefore, $n_{5} \ne 21 \Longrightarrow n_{5} = 1$ and G is not simple!
