You are given an integer mountainHeight denoting the height of a mountain.

\n\n

You are also given an integer array workerTimes representing the work time of workers in seconds.

\n\n

The workers work simultaneously to reduce the height of the mountain. For worker i:

\n\n\n\n

Return an integer representing the minimum number of seconds required for the workers to make the height of the mountain 0.

\n\n

 

\n

Example 1:

\n\n
\n

Input: mountainHeight = 4, workerTimes = [2,1,1]

\n\n

Output: 3

\n\n

Explanation:

\n\n

One way the height of the mountain can be reduced to 0 is:

\n\n\n\n

Since they work simultaneously, the minimum time needed is max(2, 3, 1) = 3 seconds.

\n
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\n

Input: mountainHeight = 10, workerTimes = [3,2,2,4]

\n\n

Output: 12

\n\n

Explanation:

\n\n\n\n

The number of seconds needed is max(9, 12, 12, 12) = 12 seconds.

\n
\n\n

Example 3:

\n\n
\n

Input: mountainHeight = 5, workerTimes = [1]

\n\n

Output: 15

\n\n

Explanation:

\n\n

There is only one worker in this example, so the answer is workerTimes[0] + workerTimes[0] * 2 + workerTimes[0] * 3 + workerTimes[0] * 4 + workerTimes[0] * 5 = 15.
