If a codon in RNA was GAC, what would it's copy be?

Assuming that you are asking for its anticodon that is carried on the specific tRNA molecule, the anticodon simply complementary base pairs the nucleotides in the RNA codon, in this case would be CUG.

If you were referring to DNA, then we would have to work backwards to find the set of 3 nucleotides that base pair to GAC, which would be CT
