If $R$ is a commutative ring and $I$ and $J$ are ideals s.t. $I+J=R$ then show that $IJ=Icap J$.



I've already shown that $IJ subset Icap J$, now I need to show the reverse inclusion.



I'm a bit lost, so far i'm just figuring out what pieces I have to work with.



Such as:



$forall rin R$ $exists iin I ,jin J$ s.t. $i+j=r$



$forall ijin IJ$, $ij=i_1$ and $ij=j_1$ for some $i_1in I$, $j_1in J$.



Also, if I let $xin Icap J$, then $x=i_2=j_2=i+j$ for some $i_2in I$, $j_2in J$



Anyone, having problem getting to the conclusion here, thanks in advance

  • @JohnDouma It's very doubtful that $I$ is a subset of $IJ$. Take for instance, $R = mathbbZ$, $I = 2 mathbbZ$ and $J = 3 mathbbZ$.

    There are $iin I, jin J$ such that $i+j=1$. Then, for all $ain Icap J$,
