Sarah is planning for a children's party. She wants to provide each child with a party bag containing 3 items, a whistle, a ball and a tube of sweets. Whistles are sold in packs of 5, balls in packs of 3 and sweets in packs of 6, she doesn't want any single items left over, even if it means she has too many party bags. What are the minimum party bags she can make and how many packs of each item does she need to buy?
