Since it's all liquid water (no ice or vapor), you can just do a weighted average. [(1 g)*(0 C) + (10 g)(100 C)] / (11 g) = 90.91 C.
If you're supposed to be more formal about it, you need to set the final temperature as a variable, like T, and then calculate the heat gained by the 1 g at 0 C to be equal to the heat lost by the 10 g at 100 C. It would look like (1 g)c(T - 0) = (10 g)c(100 - T), where c is the specific heat capacity of water. As you can see, c cancels out from both sides, giving you T = 1000 - 10T ==> 11T = 1000 ==> T = 1000/11 = 90.91 C, as described above.

The specific heat of water is 1cal/g Lets tf the final temperatue
the hot water loses an amount of calories x
Q1 =- 10 (100-tf) =-1000+10tf
the cold water receives Q2 = 1*tf
Q1 =-Q2
-1000 +10tf = -tf
1000 = 11tf tf = 1000/11=90.9°C

the particular warmth of water is 1cal/g/°C. (or 1kcal/kg/°C). meaning, that a million gram of water + a million Calorie = a million°C improve in temperature. (get rid of a million calorie and the temperature is going down by a million°C) 1kilo-gram (a million,000 grams) demands 1kilo-calorie (a million,000 energy) in line with °C. those are 'small energy' 'c'. 'C' is 1kcal utilized by dieticians.
