Abstract: We give a new formula for the Chebotarev densities of Frobenius elements in Galois groups. This formula is given in terms of smallest prime factors $p_{mathrmmin}(n)$ of integers $ngeq2$. More precisely, let $C$ be a conjugacy class of the Galois group of some finite Galois extension $K$ of $mathbbQ$. Then we prove that ${\displaystyle }$-lim_{X ightarrowinfty}sum_{substack{2leq nleq X\[1pt]left[frac{K/mathbb{Q}}{p_{mathrm{min}}(n)} ight]=C}}frac{mu(n)}{n}=frac{#C}{#G}.${\displaystyle }$ This theorem is a generalization of a result of Alladi from 1977 that asserts that largest prime divisors $p_{mathrmmax}(n)$ are equidistributed in arithmetic progressions modulo an integer $k$, which occurs when $K$ is a cyclotomic field $mathbbQ(zet{a}_k)$.
