HINT
Say current total amount is $m$. Let $x$ for first-rate product, $y$ for the rest.
Step 1: could you show what $x,y$ are in terms of $m$?
Step 2: what is $x$ increasing by $10\%$, and what is $y$ decreasing by $10\%$?
Step 3: what is the new total amount in terms of $m$, and could you find the new percentage now?
$$90\%\cdot r=r_1\implies10\%\cdot r=r_2$$
$$r'=110\%\cdot r_1+90\%\cdot r_2=(110\%\cdot90\%+90\%\cdot10\%)\cdot r$$
