10. In $\triangle ABC$, $AB$, $BC$, and $CA$ have lengths $3$, $4$, and $5$, respectively. Let the incircle, circle $I$, of $\triangle ABC$ touch $AB$, $BC$, and $CA$ at $C'$, $A'$, and $B'$, respectively. Construct three circles, $A''$, $B''$, and $C''$, externally tangent to the other two and circles $A''$, $B''$, and $C''$ are internally tangent to the circle $I$ at $A'$, $B'$, and $C'$, respectively. Let circles $A''$, $B''$, $C''$, and $I$ have radii $a$, $b$, $c$, and $r$, respectively. If $\frac{r}{a}+\frac{r}{b}+\frac{r}{c}=\frac{m}{n}$ where $m$ and $n$ are positive integers, find $m+n$.
