To find the original number, we first need to find what the total number is when 25% is 45.

Let the original number be x.

25% of x is 0.25x. We are given that 0.25x = 45.

So, x = 45 / 0.25 = 180.

Now, we need to find what 45% of 180 is.

45% of 180 is 0.45 * 180 = 81.

Therefore, 45% of the number is 81.
