Jennifer is making a cold cut platter using turkey and ham for an event that she is catering. She uses 90 slices of meat. If 63 of the slices of meat are turkey, what percent of the meat on the platter are ham?

turkey- 63
ham- (90 - 63=27) }=90

90 divided by 100 = 0.90
0.90= 1%
63 divided by 0.90(one percent)=70
100-70 (or same calculation as above but replace 63 with 27)=30
turkey=70%
ham=30%
