Jenny spent 25 minutes doing her reading assignment, and then 1 hour and 15 minutes solving her math homework. What part of this time did she read?

1 hour is 60 minutes.

She spent a total of 60 + 15 + 25 = 100 minutes on home work.

She spent 25 reading, so she spent 25/100 of her time reading.

25/100 reduces to 1/4
