Answer:
According to the rule given by Chargaff, A + G = C + T.
Adenine (A) will always pair with Thymine (T). This means that A = T.
Cytosine (C) will always pair with Guanine (G). This means that C = G.
Since the proportion of thymine T = 30%, so, A = 30%.
G + C = 100 - 60% = 40%
So, G = 20% and C = 20%.
Therefore, the answer is T = 30%, A = 30%, G = 20% and C = 20%.
