Let \(\xi\) be an irrational number. Then for every real number \(\eta\) and integers \(a,b,s\) \((1\leq a,b\leq s)\) and for every \(\varepsilon>0\) there are infinitely many pairs of integers \(P\) and \(Q>0\) such that \[ |Q\xi-P- \eta|<{(1+ \varepsilon) \cdot s^2\over \sqrt 5\cdot Q} \] where \(P\equiv a \pmod s\), \(Q\equiv b \pmod s\). If \(\xi,\eta,a,b,s\) satisfy special conditions, then it is possible to improve this inequality.
