12 quarters will make $3
Ah, a lovely question! If we have three wholes, and each whole is made up of four quarters, then we would have a total of twelve quarters. Just imagine all those quarters shining in the sunlight, ready to be used in whatever masterpiece you have in mind.
There are 4 quarters in one dollar. Three of them then have 3X4 =12 quarters. There are three more in seventy five cents (0.75). All together there are 12+3 =15 quarters.
Three quarter of 12 is 9

Twelve quarters equals three 'wholes', or three units, or three dollars if you are talking about US currency.
12 of them because 12/4 = 3
