Solution

Given that G is a finite abelian group

and k a fixed positive integer

For k =0 we have an=a0 = e belongs to G

Hence identity element belongs to G

K, being a positive integer can be written as r modn where 0<r<n

For r, we have n-r such that

a^r * a^(n-r) =e

Hence all elements have inverse.

So H is a subgroup.
