If the tape diagram represents the ratio of the number of green chips to the number of purple chips, we need to find the corresponding number of purple chips for 14 green chips.
From the tape diagram, we can see that there are 8 equal parts for purple chips. Since there are 14 green chips, we need to divide the number of green chips (14) by the number of equal parts (8) to find the number of purple chips for one part.
14 green chips ÷ 8 parts = 1.75 green chips per part.
Since we can't have a fraction of a chip, we can round the result to the nearest whole number. In this case, the number of purple chips for one part is 2.
To find the total number of purple chips, we can multiply the number of purple chips for one part (2) by the number of parts (8).
2 purple chips per part × 8 parts = <<2*8=16>>16 purple chips.
Therefore, Jason has 16 purple chips (option: 16 purple chips).
Based on the given tape diagram, the number of green chips is represented by 14. To determine the number of purple chips, we need to find the corresponding value on the diagram.
