You must divide both the numerator and the denominator by the same number while leaving them both whole. Both 45 and 10 can be divided by 5, so the first step we make is dividing them by 5. 45/5=9 and 10/5=2, therefore our simplified answer is 9/2. This is the simplest fraction form; however if you want, you can simplify it again to a mixed number, 4 1/2.
