Jason needed to use 8 pounds 14 ounces of clay to make a bowl and twice as much to make a vase. If he had a 25 pound bag of clay available, did he have enough clay to make both items?

No, he didn’t.
To make a bowl it’s 8 pounds 14 ounces.
To make a vase it’s 17 pounds 12 ounces.
To make both items, he would need 26 pounds 10 ounces of clay.
