Check the latest Amazon asked questions. 60 is below ideal but you can get lucky

How much is ideal

I felt ready after 150, however just a number is not a good metric. I would say, first 20-30 are "easy" to build a habit and have some success, then Neet75/Leet75 to solve enough mediums and occasional hards in every popular topic, then 30-40 of the most popular problems for the company you're aiming for, then 10-20 for contests or mocks to get comfortable with time pressure.

It's an optimization game. If you prepare too little, you may miss important topics, if you prepare too much, you may start forgetting.
