SN1 and E1 have identical rate determining steps (RDS) so they
occur simultaneously and have the same properties.

Explanation:

remember for Sn1/E1 reactions that bond breaking occurs before bond making.

One of the few factors that affects SN1/E1 is when stabilizing carbocation.

there are a lot of helpful videos on youtube.
I hope this helps
