Problem Statement

Let f(x,y)=5x2y+5y2xf(x, y) = \left\lfloor \frac{5x}{2y} \right\rfloor + \left\lceil \frac{5y}{2x} \right\rceil. Suppose x,yx, y are chosen independently uniformly at random from the interval (0,1](0, 1]. Let pp be the probability that f(x,y)<6f(x, y) < 6. If pp can be expressed in the form m/nm/n for relatively prime positive integers mm and nn, compute m+nm + n.
(Note: x\lfloor x\rfloor is defined as the greatest integer less than or equal to xx and x\lceil x \rceil is defined as the least integer greater than or equal tox x.)
