A quarter is called so because it represents one-fourth, or 25%, of a whole dollar. The term "quarter" derives from the Latin word "quartus," meaning "fourth." Since a dollar is divided into four equal parts, each part is worth 25 cents, hence the name "quarter." This terminology has been used in the United States since the introduction of the quarter coin in the late 18th century.
