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.

A semibreve is a whole note, and a crotchet is a quarter-note, therefore, a semibreve lasts one beat, and a crotchet lasts a quarter beat.
