Abstract: In the present work we prove a common generalization of Maynard-Tao's recent result about consecutive bounded gaps between primes and on the ErdH{o}s-Rankin bound about large gaps between consecutive primes. The work answers in a strong form a 60 years old problem of Erd"os, which asked whether the ratio of two consecutive primegaps can be infinitely often arbitrarily small, and arbitrarily large, respectively.
