Suppose <math>N</math> is a [[fact about::cyclic normal subgroup]] of a group <math>G</math>. Then, the [[commutator subgroup]] <math>[G,G]</math> is contained in the [[fact about::centralizer]] <math>C_G(N)</math>.
Suppose <math>N</math> is a [[fact about::cyclic normal subgroup;1| ]][[cyclic normal subgroup]] of a group <math>G</math>. Then, the [[derived subgroup]] <math>[G,G]</math> is contained in the [[fact about::centralizer;2| ]][[centralizer]] <math>C_G(N)</math>.


Equivalently, since centralizing is a symmetric relation, we can say that <math>N</math> is contained in the [[fact about::centralizer of commutator subgroup]] <math>C_G([G,G])</math>.
