A minim note is twice faster than a semibreve.
There are 16 semiquavers in a semibreve. A minim is worth two beats and a semibreve is worth four beats. So, a minim should be worth half of what a semibreve is worth. The answer is 8.
A minim.
There are six quavers in a dotted minim.
A semibreve is four times longer than a crotchet. If you imagine a semibreve with a length of 64 (for theory's sake) as a 'whole note', a half note with a length of 32 is a minim, a quarter note with length 16 is a crotchet, etc. The list goes on. Here's a helpful link: http://neilhawes.com/sstheory/theory12.htm Scroll down to the table and you should find that very illustrative. {| ! ! | ! | ! ! ! | ! | ! ! ! | ! | ! ! ! | ! | ! ! ! | ! | ! ! ! | ! | ! ! ! | ! | ! ! ! | ! | ! | |}
6 beats
In 4/4 time, a minim is 2 beats long. A dotted semibreve is 6 beats long. So 3 minims in a dotted semibreve.

A minim note is twice faster than a semibreve.

A minim is equal to two crotchet beats, while a semibreve is equal to four crotchet beats. Therefore, there are two minims in a semibreve.
There are 6.
