Default Combining 2 percentages into one cell and displaying as % format

I have once cell that is 75% and one cell that is 25%.

I would like to combine the two into one cell that looks like this "75% / 25%"

Concatenate does not seem to work for me since these are not text so it does
not display as %s.

Thanks for your help!
