Final answer:

In total, there were 7 cakes at Ashira's birthday party, calculated by multiplying the total number of guests (42) by the amount of cake each guest ate (1/6 of a cake).

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we are given that each of 42 guests at Ashira's party ate 1/6 of a cake. We can calculate the total amount of cake eaten by multiplying the number of guests by the amount of cake each guest ate. So, 42 guests times 1/6 cake per guest equals 7 cakes in total. Therefore, there were 7 cakes at Ashira's birthday party.
