This will probably take some experimentation to get right, especially the angle to rotate by.
If you've copied my shape exactly, (which may not be possible, I may not have given enough info for that), then the figures given in the pic should work.
If not, either be very good at trignometry, or play with the angle to see what works.
When doing that I usually just replicate once, and undo if the reult isn't right.
Note that the Replicator is a sort of macro, it actually does several steps in one. When undoing, you have to undo each step.
Or just delete the replicated object...
Switch to Object Mode. If your wedge isn't selected, select it now.
Go to Menu->Tools->Replicator.
Fill in the values.
Notes:
When you're happy, hit "Go".
Instant (well nearly) spiral staircase:-))
Almost there.
But we need to do a bit of tidying up....
