Question

Whole note minus 1 half notes minus 2 quarter notes

Answer 1

1 - 1/2 - 2/4 = 0
A whole minus a half equals half minus another half (2/4) equals 0

Answer 2

Hey there! :)

Assuming that we're speaking about musical notes, then we know that a whole note = 4 beats

So, we know that :

** whole note = 4 beats **

** half note = 2 beats **

**quarter note = 1 beat **

So, we are given the equation :

whole note - 1 half note - 2 quarter notes.

Plug in what we know.

(4) - (2) - (1) - (1)

Simplify.

2 - 1 - 1

1 - 1

0

So, our answer is 0 beats!
