COMMENTS
The denominator triangle b(n,m) is given in A285865.
a(n,m)/b(n,m) = B(2;n,m) is the d = 2 instance of the fractional d-family of triangles B(d;n,m) = binomial(n,m)*d^(n-m)*B(n-m), for d >= 1. They are the coefficient triangles of generalized Bernoulli polynomials PB(d;n,x) = Sum_{m=0..n} B(d;n,m)*x^m for n >= 0.
{PB(d;n,x)}_{n>=0} has e.g.f. EB(d;x,z) := Sum_{n>=0} PB(d;n,x)*z^n = d*z*exp(x*z)/(exp(d*z)-1). B(d;n,m) is a Sheffer triangle of the Appell type for each d, denoted by (d*z/(exp(d*z - 1)), z).
PB(d;n,x) gives a (trivial) generalization of the Bernoulli polynomials with coefficients given in A196838/A196839 (rising powers of x), and this is PB(1;n,x).
The polynomials PB(d;n,x) appear in the generalized Faulhaber formula for sums of powers of arithmetic progressions SP(n,m) := Sum_{j=0..m} (a + d*j)^n, n >= 0, m >= 0, d >= 1, a = 0 for d = 1 and a from the smallest positive restricted residue system modulo d >= 2. For this Faulhaber formula see a comment in A285863, where they are named B(d;n,x).
The row sums of the rational triangle B(2;n,m) give A157779(n)/A141459(n). The alternating row sums are given in A285866/A141459(n).

FORMULA
a(n,m) = numerator(binomial(n, m)*2^(n-m)*B(n-m)), with the Bernoulli numbers B(k) = A027641(k)/A027642(k).
E.g.f.s of the rational column sequences {B(2;n, m)}_{n>=0} are Ecol(m, x) = (2*x/(exp(2*x) - 1))*x^m/m! (Sheffer property). Here the numerators of column m are numerator([x^m/m!] Ecol(m, x)), m >= 0.
