Suppose $a,b\in \Bbb R$, we have a map $f:\Bbb R \to \Bbb T$ which is defined as following:
$f(t)=(at \mod 1,bt \mod 1)$
Is $f(\Bbb R)$ dense in $\Bbb T$?

What do you think? You can gain some intuition by drawing some sketches on the unit square. What does the image of $f$ look like when $(a,b)=(1,1)$? What about $(a,b) =(\sqrt{2}, 1)$?
