    Beto plays the following game with his computer: initially the computer randomly picks 3030 integers from 11 to 20152015 , and Beto writes them on a chalkboard (there may be repeated numbers). On each turn, Beto chooses a positive integer kk and some if the numbers written on the chalkboard, and subtracts kk from each of the chosen numbers, with the condition that the resulting numbers remain non-negative. The objective of the game is to reduce all 3030 numbers to 00 , in which case the game ends. Find the minimal number nn such that, regardless of which numbers the computer chooses, Beto can end the game in at most nn turns.
