1 whole note

1 dotted half note and 1 quarter note (in any order).

2 half notes.

1 half note and 2 quarter notes (in any order).

4 quarter notes.

Keep in mind that:

1 Half note=1 dotted quarter note + 1 eighth note=2 quarter notes=4 eighth notes

1 quarter note = 1 dotted eighth note + 1 16th note=2 eighth notes=4 16th notes

1 eighth note= 1 dotted 16th note + 1 32nd note = 2 16th notes=4 32nd notes

Any of these notes can be replaced by their equivilants and notes can be in any order. There are limitless possibilities.

What are name notes in music?

A musical note is a graphic representing a length of time. More specifically, it represents a subdivision of a "measure". For instance, if you are playing in 4/4 time (that's four beats in a measure, quarter note gets the best...so a measure consists of four quarter notes...) a quarter notes takes up one quarter of a measure, so there are four quarter notes in a measure. For another example, there would be eight eighth notes per measure. For a more advanced example, a quarter note, followed by two eighth notes, followed by two sixteenth notes, followed by three eighth notes will equal a measure. (1/4 + 2/8 + 2/16 + 3/8 = 1 measure). The definition of a note is often confused with musical "pitch" which delineates frequency by note name, i.e. A, B, D flat, G sharp, etc.
