2 chocolate chip: 3 sugar      So, this is the ratio.

The sum of this is 5 but we need it to be 20, because there are 20 cookies.

Let's try multiplying 4 to each side:

4 * 2 chocolate chip : 4 * 3 sugar

8 chocolate chip: 12 sugar

8 + 12 = 20

So, you have 12 sugar cookies.

Final Answer: 12 sugar cookies
