1 % 10 % = ( 1 100 10 100 ) ( 100 % ) = ( 1 100 ) ( 100 10 ) ( 100 % ) = ( 1 10 ) ( 100 % ) = ( 0.1 ) ( 100 % ) = \large \dfrac{1\%}{10\%}=\left(\dfrac{\frac{1}{100}}{\frac{10}{100}} \right)(100\%)=\left(\dfrac{1}{100}\right) \left( \dfrac{100}{10} \right)(100\%)=\left(\dfrac{1}{10}\right)(100\%)=(0.1)(100\%)= 10 % \large \color{#D61F06}\boxed{10\%}

It's simple, if viewed step by step:

1%/10%

= 1 100 \frac{1}{100} / 10 100 \frac{10}{100}

= 1 10 \frac{1}{10}

=0.1

=10%

Cheers!
