Asymptotic density

The article says:

Let R={a/b: a,bA} be the set of fractions of A. If A has positive asymptotic density, then R is (topologically) dense in the positive reals. If R is not dense in the reals then A has lower asymptotic density less than 1/2 and upper asymptotic density less than 1; and any such lower or upper density is achievable.

If R is (topologically) dense in the positive reals, does it imply that A has positive asymptotic density? If P is the set of primes (which have null upper asymptotic density, and for which the Green–Tao theorem proved that it contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions), is R={a/b: a,bP} (topologically) dense in the positive reals? — Daniel Forgues 05:03, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
