Manny makes dinner using 1 box of pasta and 1 jar of sauce. If pasta is sold in packages of 6 boxes and sauce is sold in packages if 3 jars, what is the least number of dinners that Manny can make without any supplies leftover?

If Manny wants to make pasta, and must buy 6 boxes of pasts as a minimum, then he must prepare six dinners as a minimum, without any supplies left over. Of course he would have to buy 6 jars of sauce to accomodate the dinner.
