The concentration would be 0.76 mol/L.
The most common way to solve this problem is to use the formula
#c_1V_1 = c_2V_2#
In your problem,
#c_1# = 4.2 mol/L; #V_1# = 45.0 mL
#c_2# = ?; #V_2# = 250 mL
#c_2 = c_1 × V_1/V_2# = 4.2 mol/L × #(45.0"mL")/(250"mL")# = 0.76 mol/L
This makes sense. You are increasing the volume by a factor of about 6, so the concentration should be about ¹/₆ of the original (¹/₆ × 4.2 = 0.7).
