E.g., if it's a ratio of two 0-255 images with equalized histograms, then half the ratios will be between 0 and 1 while the other half will be between 1 and 255 (and some will be undefined): that's a huge discrepancy in ranges! Depending on your purpose, the logarithm of the ratio might be a better quantity to compute; better yet, compute log((1+band1)/(1+band2)) to avoid undefined quantities. At the very least this will produce a more readable map.
