Every hour, the first pump fills 1/20 of the tank, and the second fills 1/15 of the tank.  If, when combined with the third pump, all three pumps fill 1/6 of the tank in an hour, the third pump fills 1/6-1/15-1/20=\frac{1}{20} of the tank every hour, so it takes a total of 20 hours to fill the tank alone.

The first thing we must keep in mind is that there are 2 bags left over.
 Therefore, Luis distributed:
 534-2 = 532
 The number of bags will be:
 N = (total amount distributed) / (amount distributed per store)
 Substituting we have:
 N = (532) / (28)
 N = 19
 Answer:
 
Luis distributed milk for 19 stores.
