Whole milk straight from the cow is primarily 3.5% milk fat. This is milk coming from your average Holstein cow, not Jerseys or of any other dairy breed which may have a higher or lower percentage of milk fat than the Holstein does.

Whole milk contains roughly 3.4 - 3.6% milk fat (3.4 - 3.6g of fat per 100ml).

2 percent milk is made by removing some of the milk fat from the product. Mostly 2 percent milk is called Low Fat milk and contains between 1.5 and 2.0% milk fat.

If you were to mix Whole Milk and 1 percent would it dillute to create a middle percentage or combine to create 101 percent?

You would have like 2 1/2 percent milk. The percent is the amount of fat in the milk. 100 percent would be butter. You can not have more than 100 percent of anything. Whole milk in the U.S. contains a minimum of 3.25% butterfat. So if you combine one part whole milk with one part 1% milk, you will have at least 2.125% butterfat in the mix. [Add 3.25 + 1.00. Divide the answer by 2]
