On the properties of the order of a product in a finite abelian group

This paper is based on the article entitled On The Order of a Product in a Finite Abelian Group , by Dieter Jungnickel, which appeared on the Volume 69, February 1996 issue of the Mathematics Magazine. Let a and b be elements of a finite abelian group G and let m and n be the orders of a and b, resp...
