May 13, 2013 at 20:12 comment added Jim Humphreys @unknown: In a research paper, I'd probably just refer to this basic example (it's not a real theorem) as "well known". But if pressed to supply a published reference, I'd still emphasize the elementary nature of the example by citing Exercise 8.9 in J.-P. Serre, Linear Representations of Finite Groups, Springer, 1977 (English translation of an earlier French edition). The computation of group and subgroup orders here is straightforward, as other suggested references indicate.

May 11, 2013 at 13:20 comment added Jim Humphreys @unknown: This is far from a research-level question, being well-known for generations and written down in textbooks. All it requires it the easy computation of the group and subgroup orders. Did you try first at math.stackexchange.com?
May 11, 2013 at 10:50 comment added Henry.L For the Sylow-group theory, I like Hungerford's deployment very much.
May 11, 2013 at 10:42 comment added Filippo Alberto Edoardo You can find this as Example 2.1 of the beautiful <a href="arxiv.org/pdf/math/0503154v6.pdf"> small book by J.-P. Serre </a> on finite groups.
May 11, 2013 at 9:42 comment added Geoff Robinson This is proved in Herstein's book "Topics in Algebra" for example-maybe second or third edition. Once you know the order of ${\rm GL}$,it is a matter of verifying that the index of the subgroup of upper unitriangular matrices is prime to $p,$ which is clear.
