About this symbol
Unicode calls ¾ a “vulgar fraction”, from the Latin vulgaris, meaning common: a fraction written with whole numbers above and below a line. Three quarters, one half and one quarter were the only fractions in the Latin-1 character set, which is why they have short Windows Alt codes.
