Question: Let G be a Z module generated by v 1 , v 2 ,v 3 subject to the relations 2v 1 - 4v 2 -

Let G be a Z module generated by v1, v2,v3 subject to the relations

2v1 - 4v2 - 2v3 = 0

10v1 - 6v2 + 4v3 = 0

6v1 - 12v2 - 6v3 = 0

Prove that there exists a set of generators w1,w2,w3 of G such that 2w1 = 0, 14w2 = 0 and w3 has infinite order, i.e. nw3 doesnot equal to 0 for every positive integer n.
