The Answer Is 27% . . . . . . . . . . . . .  The dots are so I can post the answer, because without a long reply I can't answer.

Answer:

27% .  

Explanation:

A (adenine) pairs with T (thymine) and has the same percentage. C (cytosine) pairs with G (guanine) and they both have the same percentage.  In this case, the percentage of T (thymine) is 23%.  So A (adenine) will also have 23%. This leaves the remaining percentage at 54% (100-46).  So G and C will have 27% each (totaling 54%).
