On the other hand, John's Gospel clearly spaces the mission of Jesus over three years and in this gospel his third Passover occurred on the evening following his crucifixion.
Another Answer:
Others have said there were 4 Passovers from the beginning of His ministry to His Crucifixion on Passover Day (Jewish tradition had days beginning at sunset with the night portion coming first). Sir Isacc Newton was a believer in four.
If His ministry began in the Autumn of His 30th year - some date this to 27 AD, then the first Passover would come about 5 months into His Ministry which lasted 3 1/2 years. He died at the 4th Passover in 31 AD as our Passover Lamb.

∙ 15y agoThe Gospel of Matthew, Luke and Mark clearly represent the ministry of Jesus as having been limited to a single year, and his preaching is confined to Galilee and Jerusalem, where his career culminates at the fatal (one) Passover.
The Gospel John distributes the teaching of Jesus between Galilee, Samaria, and Jerusalem, makes it extend over at least three years, and refers to three Passovers spent by Jesus at Jerusalem.

Where does it say in the Bible that Jesus' ministry was 3 years?
--------------------The gospels do not actually say how long the mission of Jesus lasted. However, scholars point out that the events described in the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) could have been accomplished in a few weeks. There is no mention of the Passover from the beginning of his mission until the final journey to Jerusalem and for these reasons they believe that his entire mission, at least in the synoptic gospels, appears to have taken no more than a year.On the other hand, John's Gospel, by its references to the Passover (John 2:13, 6:4, 11:55, 12:1, 13:1), indicates that, for its author, the mission of Jesus lasted three years.

Why did Jesus wait so long to start his earthly ministry?
Ministry is to Minister to people, to serve. Jesus was ministering from birth, through what he did, the attitudes and behaviours he had, just like we have our own unique ministry. However I assume you mean a formal ministry, in which I have no definite answer. All I can suggest is Jesus probably underwent Rabbi training, which takes many years to pass at the highest level. Jesus came to fulfil the Law, so he must have known the Scriptures and it's teachings inside out. Hope that helps :-)
