A shunt is connected with a galvanometer...

A shunt is connected with a galvanometer in such a way that `1/90` part of the main current flows through the galvanometer.IF another shunt replaces the previous one then galvanometer current decreases by 10%. IF the main current in each case be the same then what percent of the first will be the resistance of the second shunt?
