2480.6 kJ required.

For:

CH_(4(g))+2O_(2(g))rarrCO_(2(g))+2H_2O_((l))CH4(g)+2O2(g)CO2(g)+2H2O(l)

DeltaH_(comb)=-882.0"kJ"

So for the reverse reaction:

CO_(2(g))+2H_2O_((l))rarrCH_(4(g))+2O_(2(g))

DeltaH=+882.0"kJ"

[M_r]CH_4=16.0

So 16.0"g" requires 882.0"kJ"

So 1"g"rarr882.0/16.0"kJ"

So 45"g"rarr(882.0)/(16.0)xx45=2480.0"kJ"
