How many beats does a eighth get?

Answer 1

it gets 6/8 beats

Answer 2

This depends on the time signature the music is written in. If the bottom number of the time signature is 8, then an eighth rest gets one beat. If the bottom number is 4, then it gets 1/2 beat. To get the value of a note/rest in any time signature, divide the bottom number of the time signature by the note name.

Answer 3

a half beat
In 4/4 time, an eighth rest is worth half a beat (or count). Depending on the time signature, the number of beats/counts it receives will vary.

Answer 4

Well it depends what te time signature is, if the piece is in 4/4 an eighth rest will receive a half a beat.

Answer 5

Half a beat, provided the measure is 4.
