Answer:
The required Least number of stones is 60.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Required Least number of stones is the LCM ( Lowest common Multiple ) of 15 , 20 and 30
We find LCM by prime factorization method,
15 = 3 × 5
20 = 2 × 2 × 5
30 = 2 × 3 × 5
So, LCM = 5 × 2 × 3 × 2 = 60
Therefore, The required Least number of stones is 60.
