Question

Music Math: Which note represents the total in beats of the following rhythmic values?

Answer 1

Solution:

we have been asked to find Which note represents the total in beats of the given rhythmic values?

As we know that mathematical values for the given notes as they appear in the sequences are respectively  $\frac{1}{2} , \frac{1}{8} , \frac{1}{8} , \frac{1}{2} , \frac{1}{4}$

Now we will put together as they are appearing in the given problem as below

$\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{4}=1$

The simplified value is 1.

So the answer will be a complete note.

Hence the correct option is third one.

Answer 2

It would be the half note.
