    Solution

    On Wednesday, 160 butter cookies were baked. After increasing by 5/16, the new total is 210 butter cookies. Let vanilla butter cookies = 94. Chocolate butter cookies = 94 + 22 = 116. The number of sugar cookies baked on Wednesday is 200. The difference between chocolate butter cookies and sugar cookies is: 200−116=84 Thus, the difference is 84.
