$R$ is commutative ring with unity, prove $I,Jtrianglelefteq R wedge I+J=R Rightarrow IJ=Icap J$ [duplicate]
$begingroup$
This question already has an answer here:
For a ring R, and ideals $A$, $B$, then $AB=A cap B$ if $A + B = R$
1 answer
Let $R$ a commutative ring with unity, and let $I,Jtrianglelefteq R$ ideals such that $I+J=R$. Prove that $IJ=Icap J$.
Recall $IJ={sum_{k=1}^n i_kj_k:i_kin I,j_kin J, kin mathbb{N} }$.
I have shown that $IJsubseteq Icap J$. The rest of the solution does not use the commutativity of $R$ so my question is where is the mistake:
Let $ain Icap J$. $a=acdot 1in IJ$ thus $Icap J=IJ$.

As Yadati Kiran mentioned in their comment, $1$ is not in general an element of $J$. While it is true that $acdot 1in I$ by one of the properties of an ideal (as you mention in your recent comment), how do you deduce that $acdot 1in IJ$? If $1$ were an element of $J$ this would follow, but as Yadati Kiran pointed out, this is not the case in general.
Here is a hint on how to proceed instead: Your intuition to be skeptical of a solution that doesn't use all of the assumptions was right - but you also did not use I+J=R yet. This allows you to write $1=i+j$ with $iin I,jin J$. Now if $ain Icap J$, try to rewrite $a=acdot 1=acdot (i+j)=(acdot i)+(acdot j)$ in a way that shows this is an element of $IJ$ - you will want to use commutativity here.
