In musical notation, when you combine different note values, you can describe the rhythm as follows:

- A quarter note (1 beat)
- Two sixteenth notes (each worth 1/4 of a beat, totaling 1/2 beat)
- Another quarter note (1 beat)
- An eighth note (1/2 a beat)

Putting that together, we have:

1. Quarter note (1 beat)
2. Two sixteenth notes (1/2 beat)
3. Quarter note (1 beat)
4. Eighth note (1/2 beat)

If you sum these up, it totals to 3 beats:

- Quarter note (1 beat)
- + Sixteenth note (1/4 beat)
- + Sixteenth note (1/4 beat)
- + Quarter note (1 beat)
- + Eighth note (1/2 beat)

This gives us a total of 1 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1 + 1/2 = 3 beats.

In a four-beat measure (common time, 4/4), this rhythm would fit into the first three beats. If you have a specific context in which you want to apply this rhythm, please let me know!
