Erdős problem 12

Let A⊂NA \subset \mathbb{N} be infinite with no distinct a,b,c∈Aa, b, c \in A such that a∣(b+c)a \mid (b + c) with b,c>ab, c > a. Can ∣A∩[1,N]∣/N|A \cap [1, N]|/\sqrt{N} have positive lower limit? Must every such AA fall below N1−cN^{1-c} infinitely often?

Given any function f(x)→∞f(x)\to \infty as x→∞x\to \infty there exists a set AA with the property that there are no distinct a,b,c∈Aa,b,c \in A such that a∣(b+c)a \mid (b+c) and b,c>ab,c > a, such that there are infinitely many NN such that $$\lvert A\cap\{1,\ldots,N\}\rvert > \frac{N}{f(N)}.
