Abstract
Let G be a finite abelian group of the order pr and type (p, …, p), where p is a prime. A necessary and sufficient condition is determined for the existence of subgroups G1, G2, ⋯, Gn, one of the order pa and the rest of the order pb, such that G = G1 ∪ G2 ∪ ⋯ ∪ Gn and Gi, ∩ Gj,= {θ} when ij.
