Answer:16% A, 34% C, 34% G and 16% T

Step-by-step explanation:

During complimentary strand formation the base Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T) and base Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G) , as the percentage of the base pairs in a strand is same so the percentage of the complimentary strands of the DNA would be same.
