2010 AIME I Problem 8

For a real number a, let \lfloor a \rfloor denote the greatest integer less than or equal to a. Let \mathcal{R} denote the region in the coordinate plane consisting of points (x,y) such that \lfloor x \rfloor ^2 + \lfloor y \rfloor ^2 = 25. The region \mathcal{R} is completely contained in a disk of radius r (a disk is the union of a circle and its interior). The minimum value of r can be written as \frac {\sqrt {m}}{n}, where m and n are integers and m is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find m + n.

Leading zeroes must be inputted, so if your answer is 34, then input 034
