To find the percentage of the freshman class that are majoring in Computer Science, you can use the formula:
\[
\text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of CS majors}}{\text{Total number of students}} \right) \times 100
\]
Plugging in the numbers:
\[
\text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{45544554}{99009900} \right) \times 100
\]
Now, calculate the fraction:
\[
\frac{45544554}{99009900} \approx 0.04603
\]
Next, multiply by 100 to convert it to a percentage:
\[
0.04603 \times 100 \approx 4.603
\]
Therefore, the percentage of the freshman class that are majoring in Computer Science is approximately:
\[
\boxed{4.6\%}
\]
