Answer:

2 movements

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case what we will do is name the white chips "W" and the black ones "B". If there are 9 tiles and 4 are in black then the rest, that is 5, in white, like this:

B-B-B-B-W-W-W-W-W

First movement, in turn we can flip 3 tiles, in this case we flip two blacks and one white, it would look like this:

W-W-B-B-B-W-W-W-W

The second movement is to turn the 3 black ones and thus they would all be blank

W-W-W-W-W-W-W-W-W

In other words, the smallest number of movements is 2.
