If Sara discarded 1/10 of the apples she picked as defective, then 9/10 of the apples remained.
Out of the apples remaining, 300 were made into cider.
The fraction of apples made into cider is 300 / 9/10 = 300 * 10/9 = <<300*10/9=333.3333333333333>>333.33...
The fraction of apples sold as fresh fruit is 1 - 300 * 10/9 = 9/10 - 300 * 10/9 = 9/10 - 1000/9 = 9/10 - 111.11... = 0.77...
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the fraction of the total apples picked sold as fresh fruit is 0.77.
This can also be expressed as a fraction, 0.77 = 77/100 = 7/10.
The fraction of the total apples picked sold as fresh fruit is 7/10. Answer: \boxed{7/10}.
