A simple question about the dimension of subspace.

40 Views Asked by At

I have a simple question:

Let $A$, $B$ be closed subspaces of banach space $X$ and $B\subseteq A$, if $\dim A/B<\infty$ and $\dim B<\infty$, then $\dim A<\infty$? Why?

This happens just because they are vector spaces. A set of generators for $A$ can be obtained by adding to a (finite) set of generators of $B$ a (finite) set of representants for the generators of $A/B$.
