To calculate how much of Paige's home was painted last year, you need to find the ratio of the rooms she completed to the total number of rooms.
The total number of rooms Paige decided to paint is 45.
The number of rooms she completed is 23.
To find the ratio, divide the number of rooms completed by the total number of rooms:
23 / 45 = 23/45
The answer is 23 over 45, which can be written as 23/45 or 23:45.
So, the correct answer is: 23 over 45.
