In music, a whole note (American) or semibreve(British) is a note represented by a hollow oval note head, like a half note (or minim), and no note stem . Its length is typically equal to four beats in 4/4 time. Most other notes are fractions of the whole note; half notes are played for one half the duration of the whole note, quarter notes (or crotchets) are each played for one quarter the duration, etc. A whole note lasts half as long as a double whole note (or breve).
Two half notes equal one whole notes.
An odd number of half notes cannot be replaced by a whole note, unless the half notes are part of a triplet. There are 2 half notes in a whole note, and 4 in 2 whole notes. Three half notes can be represented by 1 whole note and 1 half note. This is only true if the half notes are slurred together in the first place.
In music notation, the different symbols of duration include whole notes, half notes, quarter notes, eighth notes, and sixteenth notes, each representing a specific length of time relative to the whole note. Whole notes are the longest, followed by half notes, which are half the duration of whole notes. Quarter notes are half the length of half notes, eighth notes are half of quarter notes, and sixteenth notes are half of eighth notes. Additionally, rests represent silence for corresponding durations.

there are no whole notes in a half beat please think if it's called a half note then it's half of a whole note a whole note is 4 beats so half of 4 is 2.

notes that are equal to two quarter notes are: 1 half-note, 4 eight-notes. Hope this helps
16 sixteenths equal one whole. So 16/2 = 8 sixteenths = half a whole.
Dotted whole note, also known as a breve, or a double whole note.
A natural major scale consists of seven notes: C, D, E, F, G, A, and B. It is constructed by following a specific pattern of whole steps and half steps between the notes. The pattern is: whole step, whole step, half step, whole step, whole step, whole step, half step.
