A Map Constant on Equivalence Classes Factors Uniquely through the Quotient

If a map F from a set a to a set b takes equal values on R-related elements, for an equivalence relation R on a, then there is exactly one map G from the quotient a/R to b with G composed with the canonical projection equal to F.

Statement

In the setting of Class Theory NBG: the Axioms, Standing Conventions and Basic Notation, let aa and bb be sets, RR an equivalence relation on aa, a/Ra/R the quotient of aa by RR and πR\pi_{R} the canonical projection. Let F:a→bF:a\to b be a map such that, for all u,v∈au,v\in a, if u R vu\,R\,v then the values satisfy F(u)=F(v)F(u)=F(v).

There is exactly one map G:a/R→bG:a/R\to b whose composition with πR\pi_{R} satisfies G∘πR=FG\circ\pi_{R}=F.
