Sure, let's solve the problem step-by-step:
1. We need to divide [tex]\(0.45\)[/tex] by [tex]\(10\)[/tex].
2. Remember that dividing a number by [tex]\(10\)[/tex] is equivalent to moving the decimal point one place to the left.
3. So, moving the decimal point in [tex]\(0.45\)[/tex] one place to the left, we get [tex]\(0.045\)[/tex].
Therefore, [tex]\(0.45 \div 10 = 0.045\)[/tex].
So the correct answer is:
D. [tex]\(0.045\)[/tex]
