Abstract: In this paper we deal with a problem of PethH{o} related to existence of quartic algebraic integer $alpha$ for which ${\displaystyle }$ �eta=frac{4alpha^4}{alpha^4-1}-frac{alpha}{alpha-1} ${\displaystyle }$ is a quadratic algebraic number. By studying rational solutions of certain Diophantine system we prove that there are infinitely many $alpha$'s such that the corresponding $$ is quadratic. Moreover, we present a description of all quartic numbers $alpha$ such that $$ is quadratic real number.
