How many beats does a dotted whole note get?
What are the answers!?
How many beats does a quarter note get?
depends. In 6/4 time, or anything with at least six quarter notes) it gets 6 beats.
In 12/8, it gets 12 beats.
In 4/2 or 3/2 time, it gets 3 beats.
See a pattern here?
HHHHHHHHHeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellllppppppppppppppppp

and a whole get 6
your answers are wrong its a d c a b d a b

To determine how many beats a dotted whole note gets, we need to understand a few basic concepts.
Firstly, a whole note is a musical symbol that represents the longest duration of a note in Western musical notation. It typically receives four beats in common time (4/4 time signature).
Secondly, a dot placed beside a note increases its duration by half. This means that a dotted whole note will receive the value of a whole note plus half of its value.
Therefore, to find out how many beats a dotted whole note gets, we need to calculate the value of a whole note and add half of that value.
In 4/4 time, a whole note receives four beats. Adding half of that value (which is two beats) gives us the total value of a dotted whole note.
Therefore, a dotted whole note gets six beats in 4/4 time.
Note: The number of beats a dotted whole note gets may vary if the time signature is different. This explanation is specific to 4/4 time.
