To multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators (the numbers on top) together, and then multiply the denominators (the numbers on the bottom) together. So, to multiply 3/5 times 25, you would multiply 3 times 25 to get the numerator and multiply 5 times 1 to get the denominator.
3/5 * 25/1 = (3 * 25) / (5 * 1) = 75/5.
To simplify the fraction 75/5, you can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 5.
75/5 = (75 ÷ 5) / (5 ÷ 5) = 15/1.
So, the answer in simplest form is 15.
As for showing your work, you have correctly multiplied the fractions and simplified the result. However, it would be clearer to show the division step when simplifying the fraction.
