\beginsolution Define $\phi: G \to \Aut(G)$ by $\phi(g) = \sigma_g$ where $\sigma_g(x) = gxg^-1$. The image is $\Inn(G)$. Kernel: $\phi(g) = \textid_G$ iff $gxg^-1=x$ for all $x\in G$ iff $g \in Z(G)$. By the first isomorphism theorem, \[ G / Z(G) \cong \Inn(G). \] \endsolution The image is $\Inn(G)$

\beginsolution We know $\Aut(\Z/n\Z) \cong (\Z/n\Z)^\times$, the group of units modulo $n$. For $n=8$, \[ (\Z/8\Z)^\times = \1,3,5,7\. \] This group has order 4 and each non-identity element has order 2: \beginalign* 3^2 &= 9 \equiv 1 \pmod8,\\ 5^2 &= 25 \equiv 1 \pmod8,\\ 7^2 &= 49 \equiv 1 \pmod8. \endalign* The only group of order 4 with all non-identity elements of order 2 is $\Z/2\Z \times \Z/2\Z$ (Klein four). Hence $\Aut(\Z/8\Z) \cong \Z/2\Z \times \Z/2\Z$. \endsolution
