      Let \(H\) be a subgroup of the general linear group \(GL_ n(F)\) of degree \(n\) over a field \(F\). Let \({\mathcal H}\) be the class of all subgroups of \(GL_ n(F)\) which are conjugate to \(H\) in \(GL_ n(F)\). We put \({\mathcal H}_ 0={\mathcal H}\cap SL_ n(F)\). In the paper some conditions under which subgroups from \({\mathcal H}_ 0\) are conjugate in \(SL_ n(F)\) are studied. For any coset \(K\) of the group \(F\) on the subgroup \(\text{det }H\) we choose a matrix \(a\in GL_ n(F)\) such that \(\text{det }a\in K\). Denote by \(L\) the set of the chosen matrix. The following theorem holds: if the subgroup \(H\) coincides with its normalizer in \(GL_ n(F)\) and \(H=(H\cap SL(F))F\cdot 1\) then any subgroup from \({\mathcal H}_ 0\) is conjugate in \(SL_ n(F)\) to a unique subgroup of the form \(aHa^{- 1}\cap SL_ n(F)\), where \(a\in L\).
