It was the least I could do.

Person1 - "Hey, thanks for helping me the other day."

Person2 - "No problem, It was the least I could do."

Why does this make sense? Shouldn't it be:

Person1 - "Hey, thanks for helping me the other day."

Person2 - "No problem, It was the most I was willing to do."

Or

Person1 - "Hey you lazy piece of shit, you said you'd help but you didn't"

Person2 - "Hey, it was least I could do."
