6 sixteenth notes
2 eighth notes
16 sixteenth notes equal a whole note (1 e & a 2 e & a 3 e & a 4 e & a) =)
If you know fractions, that should be a walk in the park. 4/8 = 1/2 when reduced. This means that four eighth notes is equal to one half.
It gets half of a beat. Two eighth notes equal one quarter note.
2 sixteenth notes make an 8th note
it equals a quarter note because 2 sixteenth notes equal an eight note so 4 sixteenth notes would equal a quarter note.
8 notes are not equal to one beat in fact you can not even make one beat with eighth notes it actually takes four sixteenth notes to make one beat.
A dotted eighth note is equal in duration to three sixteenth notes.

Oh, this can be so tricky, depending on the meter of the piece in question and how complex the passage is. The quick and dirty answer is that a dotted eighth has the value of three sixteenth notes. You can see that two eighth notes would be equal to 4 sixteenth notes, right? If you pair a dotted eighth note with a sixteenth note (you will see this very often: the two notes are connected with one flag/bar, the dot comes with the first note, and there is an added flag/bar segment to the second note that is short; it doesn't extend back to the first note) then the dotted eighth takes the place of the first 3 sixteenth notes in a group of four sixteenths.
three because two eighth notes equal one quarter note
A sixteenth note is half the duration of an eighth note, so there are two 1/16th note in one 1/8th note.
2 eighth notes
