Consider all ordered pairs of integers $(a,b)$ such that $1\le a\le b\le 100$ and $$\frac{(a+b)(a+b+1)}{ab}$$ is an integer.
Among these pairs, find the one with largest value of $b$. If multiple pairs have this maximal value of $b$, choose the one with largest $a$. For example choose $(3,85)$ over $(2,85)$ over $(4,84)$. Note that your answer should be an ordered pair.
Prove that if $a$ and $b$ are positive integers and $ab>1$, then
\[\left\lfloor\frac{(a-b)^2-1}{ab}\right\rfloor=\left\lfloor\frac{(a-b)^2-1}{ab-1}\right\rfloor.\]Here $\lfloor x\rfloor$ denotes the greatest integer not exceeding $x$.
