Answer: stay the same

The melting point is a temperature when the solid object become liquid. The melting point is not influenced by how many samples need to be melt, but by the kind of the object itself. Water still freeze/melt at 0 Celcius no matter how many liters the sample size.
Increase in sample size only increase the force needed.
