The "dot" is like the musical version of the phrase "and a half." Dotted quarter notes are equal to 1-1/2 quarter notes. By the same token, dotted half notes are equal to 1-1/2 half notes, or the same as 3 quarter notes.

In a 4/4 time signature, a dotted quarter note is equal to 1-1/2 beats.

In musical notation, a crotchet (quarter note) is worth 1 beat, a dotted crotchet (dotted quarter note) is worth 1.5 beats, and a quaver (eighth note) is worth 0.5 beats. Adding these together: 1 (crotchet) + 1.5 (dotted crotchet) + 0.5 (quaver) + 1 (crotchet) equals 4 beats in total. Thus, the sum of a crotchet, a dotted crotchet, a quaver, and another crotchet is 4 beats.
