If Marcy spent 2 hours putting the 300 piece puzzle together, then she spent 2/300=1/150 of an hour per piece.
So it would take her 450*(1/150)= <<450*(1/150)=3>>3 hours to put together a 450 piece puzzle. Answer: \boxed{3}.
So it would take her 450*(1/150)= <<450*(1/150)=3>>3 hours to put together a 450 piece puzzle. Answer: \boxed{3}.
