    Let \(L_ R(x;\alpha)\) be the number of positive integers \(n\) such that \(\{{x\over n}\}\leq\alpha< \{{x\over n}\}+ {R\over n}\), where \(\alpha\in [0,1)\) and \(\{x\}\) means the fractional part of \(x\). The main result is that \(L_ R(x,\alpha)\ll Rx^ \varepsilon\) for \(R>x^{(\kappa+\lambda)/ (1+2\lambda)}\), where \((\kappa,\lambda)\) is an exponent pair.
