Since G Pairs with C, and A pairs with T....%G=%C, therefore the bases are also 40% Cytosine Final result of all bases would be:

40% Guanine

40% Cytosine

10% Adenine

10% Thymine

,

The amount of Thymine equals amount of Adenine

As per Chargaffs Rule: A+G = T+C

Total content would be 100%, therefore - Guanine content would be 60%
