If the order of a group G is
the index of a
Syl7 subgroup is equal to 8. Therefore, by Theorem 0.2, the group Gis isomorphic to a subgroup of S8. But this would imply that
divides the order of
S8 = 4690. This is not true and so it
follows that G is not simple. A simliar result holds for a group of
order 225, because
does not divide the order of S9 and
the index of a Syl25 in G is 9.
