3*2*2
and
3*5
to get least common multiple first one needs 5
and second one needs 2*2 = 4
3*2*2*5 = 60
3*5 *4 = 60
After the 59th caller, make sure to be next.

To do this, you find the LCM of 12 and 15.
12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72...
15: 15, 30, 45, 60, 75...
As you can see, their LCM is 60.
In conclusion, the 60th caller will receive both.
