The answer

If masturbation leads to the emission of semen, then (ritual bath) becomes obligatory. If you pray without performing ghusl after the emission of semen that necessitates it, there is a difference of opinion among scholars regarding the obligation of redoing those prayers. The more cautious approach is to make them up. As for fasting, it is valid even in a state of (ritual impurity). If you engaged in masturbation during the daytime in , being ignorant that it is among the things that break the fast, then the preponderant opinion is that you are not required to make up those days.
