Abstract
Two finite groups are said to have the same order type if for each positive integer both groups have the same number of elements of order . In 1987 John G. Thompson asked if in this case the solvability of one group implies the solvability of the other group. In 2024 Pawel Piwek gave a negative example. He constructed two groups of order of the same order type, where only one is solvable. In this note we produce a much smaller example of order .
