Because first cropping without knowing if you hit the desired measurements, then scaling without knowing if you scaled too much or too little beforehand. Seems to me to be a long and cumbersome way of doing it.
FYI, i have 0 experience with gimp.
There might be a plugin somewhere that does that but I still advise cropping, then scaling
Set the crop tool as this with delete cropped pixels and a fixed 90:110 aspect ratio
Set the crop tool. Crop. scale to 90 x 110 pixels. You should not need to break the link between width and height but Gimp is a bitmap editor and works in whole pixel values. Sometimes rounds up or down.

Thank you, that was quite helpful. I did notice that it wanted to round down from 110 to 109.98.
I'm using real world size because when printed out, they have to fit within certain measurements.
