The correct term is "three-quarters" when used in a context that refers to a fractional amount, such as "three-quarters of a pie." However, "three-quarter" is used as an adjective, for example, in "three-quarter length pants." So, the hyphen is used in both cases, but the form depends on the grammatical role in the sentence.
