it depends on what time signature you are working with. 4/4, which is the most common time signature, means there are 4 beats per measure and a quarter note = 1 beat. so a bar line would go after any combination of notes that equals 4 beats (4 quarter notes, 2 half notes, 1 whole note, 1 half note and 2 quarts notes...etc.) as long as you know how many beats there are per measure, then you can determine where to put the bar lines.
