May 4, 2016 at 14:35 comment added Pace Nielsen @MikhailGoltvanitsa The elements of $R$ don't commute with $t$, because this is the coproduct of rings. For instance the ring $\mathbb{Z}[s]\coprod_{\mathbb{Z}}\mathbb{Z}[t] = \mathbb{Z}\langle s,t\rangle$ has $s,t$ non-commuting. I can't explain the intricacies of the coproduct of rings in this comment, so I recommend finding a good book on the subject.
May 4, 2016 at 14:12 comment added Mikhail Goltvanitsa @Pace Nielsen, Thank you. Can you explain more circumstantially what is the construction of $R\coprod_{\mathbb{Z}}\mathbb{Z}[t]/(f(t))$. Also I don't understand, why $t$ don't commute with elements of $R$.
