it depends on the time signature. In a four pattern time, it would be 2 and 1/8 beats.
A dotted half note or three beats
Any note with a dot is held for its value plus a half. A dotted minim is a note held for a beat the lenght of a minim plus a crotchet. (minim, plus half a minim)
Only one thing. A dotted half-note. The dot extends the length of a note by one-half. There is nothing in notation that stands for a three/quarter note.
.... The dot after the note means you add half the beat. As in if it were a dotted quarter note, you would make it 1 and a HALF beats because half of one beat is a half. Or a dotted half note, it would be three beats because it is the two original beats plus half of the note.

half note = one minim quarter note = one crotchet. So it would come to 3 beats altogether.
In music notation, a dot placed after a note increases its duration by half of its original value. This means that a dotted note lasts for the original note's duration plus half of that duration.

The dot adds half the value of the note to the note. For example, let's say you have. Quarter note. Last time I checked, it was equal to one beat. When you add the dot, it takes half of the value from The note it's with and adds it to the note. So quarter note plus dot makes it 1.5 beats. Let's use a half note. Two beats, right. Add a dot. Take half of two. That's one. Add it back to two. You now have three beats, or a dotted half note.
another name for a half note is a minimum note .....................lady davis
a dotted half note gets three beats. a "dot" adds half of the value of the note...for example half the value of a half note is one beat...so add that to the half note to get 3 beats
