3 beats
whole note = 4 beats per measure dotted whole note = 6 beats. = two dotted half notes dotted half notes is 3 beats.
3 beats
1 dotted half note = 3 beats 1 dotted whole note = 6 beats so 6/3 = 2 2 dotted whole notes equals a dotted half note
Assuming they are crotchet beats, the note worth three crotchet beats would be a dotted minim.
A dotted half note has three beats; you hold it for three counts.
3 beats.
It's called a dotted minum
A musical note that contains three beats is called a dotted half note.
3 quarter notes equal one dotted half note. A quarter note is one beat, and a dotted half note is three beats, so there are 3 quarter notes in a dotted half note.
A minim has two beats. Therefore there are one and a half minims for three beats. A single note that has three beats is the dotted minim (dotted half note).
Technically, there is no "dividing" notes in music, as this is not necessary or used at all.But if I had to answer, 1 dotted half note = 3 beatsso thinking mathematically:2 dotted half notes = 6 beats1 half note = 2 beats6 divided by 2 is three.So two dotted half notes divided by one half note is three beats.
a dotted half note gets three beats. a "dot" adds half of the value of the note...for example half the value of a half note is one beat...so add that to the half note to get 3 beats
