Problem Statement

When rolling a certain unfair six-sided die with faces numbered 1,2,3,4,51, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 66, the probability of obtaining face FF is greater than 16\frac{1}{6}, the probability of obtaining the face opposite is less than 16\frac{1}{6}, the probability of obtaining any one of the other four faces is 16\frac{1}{6}, and the sum of the numbers on opposite faces is 77. When two such dice are rolled, the probability of obtaining a sum of 77 is 47288\frac{47}{288}. Given that the probability of obtaining face FF is mn\frac{m}{n}, where mm and nn are relatively prime positive integers, find m+nm+n.
