Algebra, chapter I, § 6. Extensions, solvable groups, nilpotent groups

Let G be a finite group. A Sylow p-subgroup of G is any subgroup P of G satisfying the two following conditions:

(a) P is a p-group. (b) (G : P) is not a multiple of p.

If the order of G is written in the form prmp^r m, where m is not a multiple of pp, conditions (a) and (b) are equivalent to Card(P)=pr\mathrm{Card}(P) = p^r.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
