Answer: 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The ratio of chocolate chip to sugar cookies is 5:2

If she bakes 210 cookies in one day

Suppose she baked x amount of chocolate chips on that day

So, we can write

$\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{2}{5+2}\times 210\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{2}{7}\times 210=60$

There were 60 sugar cookies on that day
