Let C1C_1C1​ be the circle in the third quadrant of radius 3 , that touches both coordinate axes. Let C2\mathrm{C}_2C2​ be the circle with centre (1,3)(1,3)(1,3) that touches C1\mathrm{C}_1C1​ externally at the point (α,β)(\alpha, \beta)(α,β). If (β−α)2=mn,gcd⁡(m,n)=1(\beta-\alpha)^2=\frac{m}{n}, \operatorname{gcd}(m, n)=1(β−α)2=nm​,gcd(m,n)=1, then m+nm+nm+n is equal to :
