Answer: She will get a different shade

Step-by-step explanation:

She will not get "Grape Purple" here is why:

The ratio of red to blue cups can be expressed as a fraction of:

2/3

If we express Miya's mix as a fraction we get:

8:14

If we simplify that it becomes:

4/7

4/7 is not equal to 2/3.
