In 2/4 time, an eight note gets half a beat. (A quarter note gets one.)
An eighth note is one HALF of ONE BEAT ( or quarter note)
1) its actually, how many BEATS in and 8th and whole note. 2) there are 4 beats in a whole note 3) there is 1/2 a beat in an eighth note
6|8 time means there are six beats in a measure, and the eighth note gets the count. So, there are six eighth note beats per measure in 6|8 time.
An eighth note takes up 1/8th of a measure. The length of the measure is determined by the length of the time signature. For instance, in common (or 4/4 time) there are 4 beats in a measure. A whole note takes 4 beats, a half note takes 2, a quarter note takes 1 beat and an eighth note gets 1/2 a beat.
That is an eighth note

In six-eight time, a quarter note gets two beats. (An eight note gets one.)
another eighth note because: a quarter + a half=3 beats + eighth = 3 1/2 beats so add another eighth and u get 4 beats.
It gets half of a beat. Two eighth notes equal one quarter note.
Depends on the time signature. In 4/4 a whole note is 4 beats and there would be 8 eighth notes.
An eighth note, a quarter note, and a half note.
Strangely enough, an eighth note is one eighth of a whole note.
