Abstract
Let n be any positive integer and ${\mathbb{Z}}_n=\{0,1,{\cdots},n-1\}$ be the ring of integers modulo n. Let $X_n$ be the set of all nonzero, nonunits of ${\mathbb{Z}}_n$, and $G_n$ be the group of all units of ${\mathbb{Z}}_n$. In this paper, by investigating the regular action on $X_n$ by $G_n$, the following are proved : (1) The number of orbits under the regular action (resp. the number of annihilators in $X_n$) is equal to the number of all divisors (${\neq}1$, n) of n; (2) For any positive integer n, ${\sum}_{g{\in}G_n}\;g{\equiv}0$ (mod n); (3) For any orbit o(x) ($x{\in}X_n$) with ${\mid}o(x){\mid}{\geq}2$, ${\sum}_{y{\in}o(x)}\;y{\equiv}0$ (mod n).
