Let $gN$ be a left coset for $gin G$. Then, since $varphi$ is a group homomorphism, if you take $nin N$, then $varphi(gn)=varphi(g)varphi(n)$, so clearly $varphi(gN)subseteqvarphi(g)varphi(N)$. Since $varphi$ is surjective, one has that every left coset of $G'$ is of the form $varphi(g)varphi(N)$.



Injectivity gives us that no two distinct cosets $g'N$ and $gN$ map to the same $varphi(g)varphi(N)$, since if $varphi(g')varphi(N)=varphi(g)varphi(N)$, then for some $n,n'in N$



$varphi(g')varphi(n')=varphi(g)varphi(n).$



But this is the same as saying $g'n'=gn$, so $g'N=gN$.



Puting all together one concludes that the number of left cosets are the same.
