QUESTION [6 upvotes]: Let $G$ be a non-measurable subgroup of $(\mathbb R,+)$ , $I$ be a bounded interval , then is it true that $m^*(G \cap I)=m^*(I)(=|I|)$ ? where $m^*$ denotes the Lebesgue outer measure

An alternative approach to this problem is possible. This approach is already provided by @Syang Chen at MathOverflow: https://mathoverflow.net/questions/59978/additive-subgroups-of-the-reals/59980 
Let $f(x) = m^*(G\cap [0,x])$. Then, for any $x, y \in G \cap (0,\infty)$, we have the additivity:
$$
f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y).
$$
Since $G$ is dense and $f$ is monotone, the additivity is generalized to all positive real numbers $x, y$. Moreover, $f(x) = ax$ with $a= f(1)$ is satisfied. 
Thus, if $I$ is any open interval, then 
$$
\frac{m^*(G\cap I)}{m^*(I)} = a .
$$
Now, we find $I$ by the Theorem 1 in the article. This gives $a=1$.
