Abstract: Zaremba's conjecture (1971) states that every positive integer number $d$ can be represented as a denominator (continuant) of a finite continued fraction $fracbd=[d_1,d_2,\mathrm{...},d_k],$ with all partial quotients $d_1,d_2,\mathrm{...},d_k$ being bounded by an absolute constant $A.$ Recently (in 2011) several new theorems concerning this conjecture were proved by Bourgain and Kontorovich. The easiest of them states that the set of numbers satisfying Zaremba's conjecture with A=50 has positive proportion in $N.$ In this paper the same theorem is proved with A=7.
