proof: Induction of the length of the series. Suppose we have 1⊲⋯⊲L⊲G
and 1⊲⋯⊲K⊲G
then L⊲KL⊲G implies that KL/L is a normal subgroup of the composition factor G/L which being a simple group implies that KL=L or G
and similarly KL=K or G.
Suppose KL≠G, then L=K and we are done by induction. Suppose KL=G then by noether2 we have GL≃KLL≃KK∩L
and GK≃KLK≃LK∩L
therefore the composition series 1⊲⋯⊲L⊲G1⊲⋯⊲L∩K⊲L⊲G1⊲⋯⊲L∩K⊲K⊲G1⊲⋯⊲K⊲G
are equivalent.
