Recall from class that we defined the set of integers by defining the equivalence relation ∼ on N × N by (a, b) ∼ (c, d) =⇒ a + d = c + b, and then took the integers to be equivalence classes for this relation, i.e. Z = [(a, b)]∼ | (a, b) ∈ N × N . We then proceeded to define 0Z = [(0, 0)]∼, 1Z = [(1, 0)]∼, − [(a, b)]∼ = [(b, a)]∼, [(a, b)]∼...

Let p and q be any two distinct prime numbers and define the relation a R b on integers a,b by: a R b iff b-a is divisible by both p and q. For this relation R: Show that the equivalence classes of R correspond to the elements of  ℤpq. That is: [a] = [b] as equivalence classes of R if and only if [a] = [b] as elements of ℤpq. you may use the following lemma: If p is prime...
