Example

The least pair of amicable numbers, (220, 284), has a ratio of the numbers of divisors d(284)/d(220) = 6/12 = 1/2.
The next pair with a larger ratio is (1184, 1210) whose ratio is d(1210)/d(1184) = 12/12 = 1.

Mathematica

s[n_] := DivisorSigma[1, n] - n; rm = 0; seq = {}; Do[m = s[n]; If[m > n && s[m] == n && (r = Divide @@ DivisorSigma[0, {m, n}]) > rm, rm = r; AppendTo[seq, n]], {n, 1, 10^7}]; seq
