Abstract:  Suppose that $G$ is a finite group and $H$ is a subgroup of $G$. The subgroup $H$ is said to be weakly-supplemented in $G$ if there exists a proper subgroup $K$ of $G$ such that $G=HK$. In this note, by using the weakly-supplemented subgroups, we point out several mistakes in the proof of Theorem 1.2 of Q. Zhou (2019) and give a counterexample.
