Problem Statement

For a positive integer nn, let d(n)d(n) be the number of positive divisors of nn, and let φ(n)\varphi(n) be the number of positive integers not exceeding nn which are coprime to nn. Does there exist a constant CC such that
φ(d(n))d(φ(n))C \frac {\varphi ( d(n))}{d(\varphi(n))}\le C for all n1n\ge 1
