Two stations each give out a circle. Those circles intersect at two places. When a third station is added, there are three circles. These three circles only intersect together at one place. That's where the precise earthquake location is.
The minimum number of seismic stations needed to determine the location of an earthquake's epicenter is THREE.

you need to have 3 seismic stations to triangulate the location of the earthquake and remember a earthquake can be from the inside of the earth but not necessarily at the epicenter because no epicenter is a straight line down.
3, or that's what i remember from science class.
3 stations
Three seismographs stations are needed to pinpoint the location of the epicentre of an earthquake.

Three seismic stations are needed to find the epicenter of an earthquake because all three radial circles made by the stations will only meet at one point. (example: if you only had to circles they would meet at two different points)At least 3
