Answer: Our required simplified fraction is
(5)/(11)

Explanation:

Since we have given that


0.\bar{45}

We need to find the simplified fraction.


Let\ x=0.\bar{45}=0.45454545.......-----------------------(1)

Multiplying by 100 on both the sides, we get that


100x=45.4545454545.........---------------------(2)

Subtracting (2) from (1), we get that


100x-x=45.454545........0.454545......\\\\99x=45\\\\x=(45)/(99)\\\\x=(5)/(11)

Hence, our required simplified fraction is
(5)/(11)
