Fourth Ring Isomorphism Theorem


Let R be a ring, and let I be an ideal of R. The correspondence A<->A/I is an inclusion preserving bijection between the set of subrings A of R that contain I and the set of subrings of R/I. Furthermore, A (a subring containing I) is an ideal of R iff A/I is an ideal of R/I.
