Answer:

The answer to your question is 30

Step-by-step explanation:

DNA is composed of 4 nitrogenous bases: Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and, Thymine.

These base form pairs, Adenine attach to Thymine and Cytosine attach to Guanine.

If a tiger has 20% Adenine that means it also has 20% of Thymine. Total 40% and the other 60 % are Guanine and Cytosine.

Which means 30% Guanine and 30% Cytosine
