When to use it
A single character for three quarters, from Latin-1 and HTML 4. Recipes and measurements use these fractions; screen readers may read them as a single word, so check the reading if exact numbers matter.
The name dates from HTML 4, so it works in every browser and in old email clients.
Browsers also accept the legacy form ¾ without a semicolon, for compatibility with old pages; new HTML should always end the reference with a semicolon.
