Lemma 10.9.13. Localization respects quotients, i.e. if N is a submodule of M, then S^{-1}(M/N)\simeq (S^{-1}M)/(S^{-1}N).
Proof. From the exact sequence
0 \longrightarrow N \longrightarrow M \longrightarrow M/N \longrightarrow 0
we have
0 \longrightarrow S^{-1}N \longrightarrow S^{-1}M \longrightarrow S^{-1}(M/N) \longrightarrow 0
The corollary then follows. \square
