    Does the section segment slope label express as a Run/Rise or Rise/Run?  If it's not the way you want it, you may have to make an expression for it.  Then just add the text ":1" after if in the label style.

    If the slopes are part of a corridor section, you can apply slope labels to links, based on their code names, in the assigned code set.

    Is this a corridor or surface section? If its a corridor, look into the codeset for that link

    Thank you
