The $phi(n)$ refers to Euler's totient function. As explained here, the $prod_{pmid n}$ refers to taking a product over all distinct primes $p$ that divide $n$.

The big pi, $prod$ denotes a product. The subscript on this tells you which numbers this product is over. In this example, the subscript says $p|n$ which means "$p$ divides $n$" i.e. the product is over all the prime numbers $p$ that divide $n$ (the prime factors of $n$). $phi(n)$ denotes the Euler-Totient function. This counts the number of integers $m<n$ which are co-prime to $n$, i.e. have $gcd(m,n)=1$.
As an example, say we have $n=105=3times5times7$. Then $$prod_{p|n}left(1-frac1pright)=left(1-frac13right)timesleft(1-frac15right)timesleft(1-frac17right)=frac{16}{35}$$
