If

then from sylow's
Theorem:
If G is simple then
n11 = 12. Therefore,
,
and
.
But then
NG(Syl11) is abelian, being of order pq, and has a
normal Syl11 and a normal Syl3. Therefore,
NG(Syl11) is
equal to the product of a Syl11 and a Syl3 and so is isomorphic
to Z33. But A12 has no subgroups isomorphic to Z33. This
is a contradiction. Therefore,
n11 = 1 and G is not simple!
