When I send out a request via web page, or over a VPN. which route does

Is it whichever one responds first (because one ISP is considerably faster
than the other) or is there some other method used to decide which route
gets priority for requests?
Unless you have special arrangements with your ISP's you most likely "just" get a standard "the internet is over here" configuration on each on your connections.

The TCP/IP-term for "over here" is "default gateway". Try running "ipconfig" in cmd.exe (Start->run->cmd.exe) and see what IP-number is used. That is the way your traffic goes.
