AP has a common difference  not a common ratio.

$${AP}\:{has}\:{a}\:{common}\:{difference} \\ $$$${not}\:{a}\:{common}\:{ratio}. \\ $$

ok.you are right.it is a typo.  sum of n terms=N  sum of m terms=M  common difference=?

A+(m−1)D=(1/n)  A+(n−1)D=(1/m)  (m−n)D=(1/n)−(1/m)  (m−n)D=((m−n)/(mn))    D=(1/(mn))  A+(m−1)×(1/(mn))=(1/n)  A=(1/n)−((m−1)/(mn))=((m−m+1)/(mn))=(1/(mn))  so a_(mn) =A+(mn−1)×D  =(1/(mn))+(mn−1)×(1/(mn))  =(1/(mn))(1+mn−1)=1

$${A}+\left({m}−\mathrm{1}\right){D}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{n}} \\ $$$${A}+\left({n}−\mathrm{1}\right){D}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{m}} \\ $$$$\left({m}−{n}\right){D}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{n}}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{m}} \\ $$$$\left({m}−{n}\right){D}=\frac{{m}−{n}}{{mn}}\:\:\:\:{D}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{mn}} \\ $$$${A}+\left({m}−\mathrm{1}\right)×\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{mn}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{n}} \\ $$$${A}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{n}}−\frac{{m}−\mathrm{1}}{{mn}}=\frac{{m}−{m}+\mathrm{1}}{{mn}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{mn}} \\ $$$${so}\:{a}_{{mn}} ={A}+\left({mn}−\mathrm{1}\right)×{D} \\ $$$$=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{mn}}+\left({mn}−\mathrm{1}\right)×\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{mn}} \\ $$$$=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{mn}}\left(\mathrm{1}+{mn}−\mathrm{1}\right)=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$ \\ $$

2)N=(n/2)[2a+(n−1)d]]    M=(m/2).[2a+(n−1d]  2a+(n−1)d=((2N)/n)  2a+(m−1)d=((2M)/m)  (n−1−m+1)d=((2N)/n)−((2M)/m)  d=((2((N/n)−(M/m)))/(n−m))

$$\left.\mathrm{2}\left.\right){N}=\frac{{n}}{\mathrm{2}}\left[\mathrm{2}{a}+\left({n}−\mathrm{1}\right){d}\right]\right] \\ $$$$\:\:{M}=\frac{{m}}{\mathrm{2}}.\left[\mathrm{2}{a}+\left({n}−\mathrm{1}{d}\right]\right. \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}{a}+\left({n}−\mathrm{1}\right){d}=\frac{\mathrm{2}{N}}{{n}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}{a}+\left({m}−\mathrm{1}\right){d}=\frac{\mathrm{2}{M}}{{m}} \\ $$$$\left({n}−\mathrm{1}−{m}+\mathrm{1}\right){d}=\frac{\mathrm{2}{N}}{{n}}−\frac{\mathrm{2}{M}}{{m}} \\ $$$${d}=\frac{\mathrm{2}\left(\frac{{N}}{{n}}−\frac{{M}}{{m}}\right)}{{n}−{m}} \\ $$
