3 beats.
In 3/2 time, there are 3 beats in the measure and the half note gets the beat.
In a 4/4 measure it would be 3 beats. =)
A half note gets two beats, no matter what time signature you are in.
The bottom note of a time signature determines the value of a beat. For example in 3/4 time (4 at the bottom:quarter note beats), a quarter note takes one beat. In 3/2 time (2 at bottom:half note beats), a quarter note takes half a beat.
3 beats.
In common (4/4) time, a half note is two beats. In cut time, the beat is given in half notes, so one half note would be one beat.

The bottom note of a time signature determines the value of a beat. For example in 3/4 time (4 at the bottom:quarter note beats), a quarter note takes one beat. In 3/2 time (2 at bottom:half note beats), a quarter note takes half a beat.
In 4/4 Time, there are 4 beats per measure, and the Quarter note (1/4, sometimes called the crotchet) gets one count. So the Half note (1/2, sometimes called the minim) would get twice as many counts (beats), i.e. two counts. A dot adds 1/2 of the beat value to the note, so: 2 + 1/2 of 2 = 3 So the dotted half note would get 3 beats in 4/4 Time.
usually a half noteA half note gets 2 beats if you are in a 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, etc. If you are in an 8 pattern time signature, a quarter note gets two beats.
A dotted half note will always get three beats because a dote adds half the value of the note to the note. So a half note = 2 beats, 1/2 of 2 = 1, so 2+1=3. If you are in 4/4, it equals three beats. If you are in3/4, it equals three. 2/4 and 2/2 cannot have a dotted half note because the value is too big. In 6/8, the value changes because the eighth note gets the beat instead of the quarter note. So then the dotted half note would get 6 beats, instead f three because everything is basically doubled. Hope that helps!!
In 2/4 time, an eight note gets half a beat. (A quarter note gets one.)
