If the two bulbs use the same technology the 100 w bulb is 10/6 times brighter than the 60 w.

Incandescent bulbs give about 10-12 lumens per watt

Halgogen gives about 15-18 lumens per watt

CFL (low-energy) gives about 50 lumens per watt.

No way to know. Light is not proportional to watts. You could have a "30-watt bulb" that produces 50 times more light than an inefficient 60-watt bulb, depending upon what technology is used in each bulb.

What percentage is a 100 watt light bulb brighter than a 60 watt light bulb?

Original answer: Because it gives off more power. Updated answer: In general, because the 100-watt bulb produces more total light (lumens) because it also consumes more power than the 60-watt bulb.
