This depends somewhat on the style of the music. The straight answer is 3/8 of a beat (a half note gets a beat in 2 2, a quarter note gets a half of a beat, etc.). This is true for all styles except older style swing. Swing was often written in cut time, but after the advent of the "walking bass" and despite the fact that the music was written in 2 2, it was generally interpreted as 4 4. Hence, in that style of music, a dotted eighth note receives 3/4 of a beat despite the implications of the time signature.
