for the questions that ask "32% of the bases of a particular chromosome are adenine. Approximately what percentage of the bases are cytosine?" all you need to do is subtract that number by 50 and that is the percentage of that particular base pair in the genome. If you do it the long way, you would multiply it by two, and subtract it by 100, then divide that number by two.. this should save you some time.
