1-10 = 2 available 1,9.
11-20 = 2 available 11,19.
21-30 = 2 available 21,29.
31-40 = 2 available 31,39.
41-50 = 2 available 41,49.
51-60 = 2 available 51,59.
61-70 = 2 available 61,69.
Q1/q2 ×100.
= 14/70 ×100
= 20.

Numbers from 1 to 70.

1 unit digit -> 1,11,21,31,41,51,61 -> 7 numbers.
9 unit digit -> 9,19,29,39,49,59,69 -> 7 numbers.

So, the total 1 and 9 unit digits is 14 numbers.
Now percentage;
14/70 * 100 = 20%.
