A cyclic group is a special kind of group that has many similarities with modular arithmetic.
Task:
A. Prove that the cyclic group of order 3 is a group by doing the following:
1. State each step of your proof.
2. Provide written justification for each step of your proof.
B. Prove that the cyclic group of order 3 is isomorphic to Z3 under addition by doing the following:
1. State each step of your proof.
2. Provide written justification for each step of your proof.
