    A subgroup A is called complemented in a group G if G has a subgroup B such that \(G=AB\) and \(A\cap B=1\). If all subgroups of a group are complemented then the group is said to be completely factorizable. Main theorem. If the set of uncomplemented subgroups of a group is finite and nonempty then the group is finite. The cardinality of an infinite not completely factorizable group does not exceed the cardinality of the set of uncomplemented subgroups.
