PROBLEM:
Chef receives 30 rupees for each mozzarella stick he eats past the X-th one.
You know that Chef received R rupees, and each plate contains Y sticks.
Find the maximum number of plates Chef could’ve ordered.
EXPLANATION:
Chef received 30 rupees for each extra stick he ate.
Since he received R rupees in total, the number of extra sticks he ate is \frac{R}{30}.
This means the total number of sticks he ate is X + \frac{R}{30}.
Let this number be \text{tot}.
Each plate contains Y sticks.
So, Chef needs to order enough plates to have Y sticks in total.
The number of plates needed to do this is exactly
where \left\lceil \ \ \right\rceil denotes the ceiling function.

from math import ceil
for _ in range(int(input())):
x, y, r = map(int, input().split())
eaten = x + r//30
print(int(ceil(eaten / y)))
