mass of bullet, m=10g
mass of of gun ,M=1kg = 1000g
ratio of kinetic energy = KE of bullet/KE of gun
= 1/2mv sq./1/2Mvsq.
= 10g/1000g = 1/100=1:100

The muzzle velocity of the bullet fired would be 500 m/s
1) According, to the third law of motion by newton, every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
2) so, if the bullet exerts a momentum when going forward, same amount of momentum will push the gun backward
3) Hence, the momentum of both would be equal
10 g * v = 1000 g * 5 m/s
v = 500 m/s
Thanks :)
