I am trying to show that
(R/I)/(J/I) is isomorphic to R/J
I and J are both ideals of the ring R, and I is a subset of J.
How do I begin this proof?

Hint:
Define
$$\phi:R/I\to R/J\;\;,\;\;\phi(r+I):=r+J$$
Show this is a well defined function (i.e., $\;r+I=r'+I\implies r+J=r'+J\;$) and that it is an onto ring homomorphism. Now, what is its kernel? And then use the first isomorphism theorem.
