it means to repeat the previous phrase played that many more times..or 3 measures more of the same.

some times it is written to just continue playing that same thing without giving

an exact timing of how long, EXAMPLE= REO SPEEDWAGON= ROLL WITH THE CHANGES... the end of the song continues with the same progression over and over again. so /// can mean 3 more times 3 more measures or just continue to for indefinite measures. in simple beginners books it simply means to strum that many times more= G/// C/// D/// G//. did this help you? if not , please write back and i will be more than happy to help you. thank.
