State and prove the orbit-stabilizer theorem. Deduce that if xx is an element of a finite group GG then the order of xx divides the order of GG

Prove Cauchy's theorem, that if pp is a prime dividing the order of a finite group GG then GG contains an element of order pp.

For which positive integers nn does there exist a group of order nn in which every element (apart from the identity) has order 2?
