Description

We have two arrays arr1 and arr2 which are initially empty. You need to add positive integers to them such that they satisfy all the following conditions:

- arr1 contains uniqueCnt1 distinct positive integers, each of which is not divisible by divisor1.

- arr2 contains uniqueCnt2 distinct positive integers, each of which is not divisible by divisor2.

- No integer is present in both arr1 and arr2.

Given divisor1, divisor2, uniqueCnt1, and uniqueCnt2, return the minimum possible maximum integer that can be present in either array.

Example 1:

Input: divisor1 = 2, divisor2 = 7, uniqueCnt1 = 1, uniqueCnt2 = 3

Output: 4

Explanation:

We can distribute the first 4 natural numbers into arr1 and arr2.

arr1 = [1] and arr2 = [2,3,4].

We can see that both arrays satisfy all the conditions.

Since the maximum value is 4, we return it.

Example 2:

Input: divisor1 = 3, divisor2 = 5, uniqueCnt1 = 2, uniqueCnt2 = 1

Output: 3

Explanation:

Here arr1 = [1,2], and arr2 = [3] satisfy all conditions.

Since the maximum value is 3, we return it.

Example 3:

Input: divisor1 = 2, divisor2 = 4, uniqueCnt1 = 8, uniqueCnt2 = 2

Output: 15

Explanation:

Here, the final possible arrays can be arr1 = [1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15], and arr2 = [2,6].

It can be shown that it is not possible to obtain a lower maximum satisfying all conditions.
