To find the number of candles Greg gets, we first need to determine the total number of parts in the ratio, which is 3 + 5 + 6 = <<3+5+6=14>>14 parts.
Next, we divide the total number of candles Sam has, which is 42, by the total number of parts in the ratio: 42/14 = <<42/14=3>>3 candles per part.
Finally, to find the number of candles Greg gets, we multiply the number of parts Greg has (6) by the number of candles per part (3): 6 * 3 = <<6*3=18>>18 candles. Answer: \boxed{18}.
