Number of primes $p$ less than $n$ s.t $p equiv 3 pmod 4$
$begingroup$
I would like to find a lower and upper bound for the number of primes less than $n$ that are $3pmod 4$. My guess is that it should be close to half of $pi (n)$ but cannot find a proof or generate myself. Is there a way to prove some lower and upper bounds as we have for $pi (n)$?
Thanks

You're looking for the modular prime counting function. Specifically, you want an estimate for $pi{4,3}(x)$.

Very useful links. Still I leave the question open for I could not find bounds yet. I will edit my question again after researching these articles. Thanks!

Use the fact that for some fixed $N$ and an $a$ such that $(N,a)=1$ we have $$sum_{{pleq x}wedge{pequiv a mod N}}frac{ log p}p= frac{log x}{varphi(N)}+O_N(1)$$ this is Dirichlet's theorem
