Question

Suppose that H is a subgroup of Z under addition and that H contains 250 and 350. What are the possibilities for H?  

 

I started with the GCD of (250, 350) = 1 so since the subgroup H is generated by the GCD of these two numbers which is 1 then H must contain all the integers.   H=Z

I am not sure if I need to elaborate more?
