A whole note is 4 [beats].
So:
half note = 2
quarter note = 1
eighth note = 1/2
sixteenth note = 1/4
This means that 4 16th notes = 1 beat, 2 8th notes = 1 beat...
If you think this is confusing, in England they have different names for note lengths like:
Hemidemisemiquaver...which I believe means 16th note...
A whole note has four beats. An eighth note has one half of a beat. If they are combined, you have four and a half beats. Those are only two notes.
Think of eighth notes in music as 4 beats divided by 8=1/2 beats
And whole notes as 4 beats
So 4 divided by 1/2 a beat would be 8
There are eight notes in a whole note

three because two eighth notes equal one quarter note
it equals a quarter note because 2 sixteenth notes equal an eight note so 4 sixteenth notes would equal a quarter note.
