It depends. Resource allocation for VMs in a production environment can be quite complicated, since different VMs may have different resource utilization patterns, and they may be able to share resources. VMware has sizing guides on their site to help you figure this out. There are also some good ESX books out that cover this in detail. Basically, you'll need to figure out the specs you'd require for three physical servers as a starting point.
