Which group is this quotient group isomorphic to?

Let $$G = left{begin{pmatrix} q&0\a+bi&qend{pmatrix} mid q in mathbb{Q}^ast, a,binmathbb{R}right}$$
and $$H = left{begin{pmatrix} q&0\a+ai&qend{pmatrix} mid q in mathbb{Q},q>0, ainmathbb{R}right}$$
Which known group is the quotient group $(G, ·)/H$ isomorphic to?




I don't know how to solve this. What I've tried:



$A,B in G$ belong to the same coset iff $A^{-1}B in H$.
Let $A = begin{pmatrix} q&0\a+bi&qend{pmatrix}$ and $B = begin{pmatrix} r&0\c+di&rend{pmatrix}$. Then $A^{-1} = begin{pmatrix} 1/q&0\(-a-bi)/q^2&1/qend{pmatrix}$ and $A^{-1}B = begin{pmatrix} r/q&0\frac{qc-ra+i(qd-rb)}{q^2}&r/qend{pmatrix}$



That means that $qc-ra$ should be equal to $qd-rb$. But I don't know how to move from here. Can anyone point me in the right direction or tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Clearly we can identify $(G,cdot)$ with $(mathbb{Q}^* times mathbb{C},*)$ by



$$
begin{pmatrix}
q & 0 \
z & q
end{pmatrix}
mapsto (q,z)
$$

where $(q,z)*(r,w) = (qr, qw+rz)$. Note that $(mathbb{Q}^* times mathbb{C},*) simeq (mathbb{Q}^*,cdot) oplus (mathbb{C},+)$, in fact $(q,z) = (q,0)*(1,frac{z}{q})$ uniquely and



$$ ({ (q,0) in G: q in mathbb{Q}^* },*) simeq (mathbb{Q}^*,cdot) $$
$$ ({ (1,z) in G: z in mathbb{C} },*) simeq (mathbb{C},+) $$
since $(q,0)*(r,0) = (qr,0)$ and $(1,z)*(1,w) = (1,z+w)$. With this identification



$$ H simeq (mathbb{Q}^+,cdot) oplus (mathbb{R}(1+i),+) simeq (mathbb{Q}^+,cdot) oplus(mathbb{R},+). $$
Now since
$$ a+ib = frac{1}{2}Big( (a+b)(1+i)+(a-b)(1-i) Big), $$
we have $mathbb{C} simeq mathbb{R}(1+i) oplus mathbb{R}(1-i) simeq mathbb{R}oplus mathbb{R}$. Finally



$$ frac{G}{H} simeq frac{(mathbb{Q}^*,cdot) oplus (mathbb{C},+)}{(mathbb{Q}^+,cdot) oplus (mathbb{R},+)} simeq ({pm1} times mathbb{R},*). $$
Now $({pm1} times mathbb{R},*) simeq (mathbb{R},+)$ by $varphi$ defined $(a,r) mapsto ar$, in fact
$$ varphi Big( (a,r)*(b,s) Big) = varphi(ab,as+br) = ab(as+br) = bs + ar = varphi(a,r)+varphi(b,s). $$



Therefore $(G/H,cdot) simeq (mathbb{R},+)$.
