The bottom number in a time signature is the denominator of the fraction denoting the note value that gets the beat. So if the bottom number in the time signature is a four, imagine it's the bottom of a fraction with a numerator of 1. 1/4 is a quarter, so the quarter note gets the beat.
Like 4/4 the most common time signature, the top tells you number of beats in a measure.
And the bottom tells you what kinds of notes gets a beat. for example 4/4=4 beats in a measure, 4, or quarter note gets a beat.
The bottom number in a time signatures describes how long each beat is.
in 4/4 time, every beat is equal to one quarter note.
in 6/8 time, every beat is one eighth note.
in 2/2 time, every beat is one half note.
The bottom number dictates how long each beat is.
In 4/4 time, each beat is equal to one quarter note.
In 3/2 time, each beat is equal to one half note.
in 6/8 time, each beat is equal to one eighth note.
The bottom number in a time signature tells you the note value that equals one beat. For example, in 4/4 time, each beat is one quarter note; therefore each bar will have 4 quarter notes. In 6/8 time, the note value is 1/8th. Each bar in 6/8 time will have six 1/8th notes.
The bottom number indicates the duration of note that receives one beat.
A bar
The bottom number in a time signature is the denominator of the fraction denoting the note value that gets the beat. So if the bottom number in the time signature is a four, imagine it's the bottom of a fraction with a numerator of 1. 1/4 is a quarter, so the quarter note gets the beat.
The bottom number indicates what duration of note gets the beat.
A 4 on the bottom indicates that a quarter note gets one beat.
The top number indicates the number of beats per measure, and the bottom number indicates what note value gets one beat.
2/2 time signature
The bottom number in a time signature is the denominator of the fraction denoting the note value that gets the beat. So if the bottom number in the time signature is a four, imagine it's the bottom of a fraction with a numerator of 1. 1/4 is a quarter, so the quarter note gets the beat.
quarter note
The bottom number in a time signature is the denominator of the fraction denoting the note value that gets the beat. So if the bottom number in the time signature is a four, imagine it's the bottom of a fraction with a numerator of 1. 1/4 is a quarter, so the quarter note gets the beat.
The bottom number indicates what duration of note gets the beat.
5/3 on a time signature does not exist. you cannot have an odd number at the bottom of a time signature there is no such note value of 3
It depends on the time signature. If the bottom number is a 2, then it is ⅜ of a beat. If the bottom number is a 4, then it is ¾ of a beat. If the bottom number is an 8, then it is 1½ beats.
The bottom number indicates what note value gets one beat.
it gets 6/8 beats
The bottom figure of the time signature determines the duration of a beat. When the bottom number is 4 (2/4, 3/4 etc.), a quarter note takes a beat. If the bottom number is 2 (2/2, 3/2 etc.), the duration of a beat is a half note.
This is the time signature. The top number signifies the beats per measure, and the bottom number signifies the type of note that gets one beat.
A 4 at the top of a time signature indicates that there are 4 beats in the bar of what ever the bottom number is in the time signature. For example in 4/4 times there is 4 quarter note beats. In 4/8 there is 4 eighth note beats.
The top number represents the number of beats in a bar in the piece. The bottom number represents the kind of note gets one beat. If the bottom number is 4, it is a quarter note. If it is an 8, it is an eighth note. just put one over the number and that is it. 4 for the top note and 4 for the bottom means that there are four quarter notes in a measure. 12 on the top and 8 on the bottom means there are 12 eighth notes in the bar. Hope that helps. :)P.S. These numbers are called the "Time Signature"
