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.
A half note receives two beats in music notation.
To determine the number of beats in music notes, you look at the shape of the note. Each note has a specific value that represents the number of beats it receives in a measure of music. For example, a quarter note typically receives one beat, while a half note receives two beats, and a whole note receives four beats. By understanding the value of each note, you can calculate the total number of beats in a piece of music.
To accurately count dotted notes in music notation, you count the number of beats the note is worth and then add half of that value. For example, a dotted quarter note is worth 1.5 beats because it is equal to a quarter note (1 beat) plus half of a quarter note (0.5 beats).
The bottom number tells you the value of the beat. The top number tells you the number of "beats to the bar". In 3 - 4 time there are 3 crotchet (quarter note) beats to the bar. When the bottom number is 4 the beat is a quarter note, a crotchet. When the bottom number is 2 the beat is a half note, a minim.
Music notes typically represent different durations of sound, with each note corresponding to a specific number of beats.

A half note receives two beats in music notation.
whole note = 4 beats per measure dotted whole note = 6 beats. = two dotted half notes dotted half notes is 3 beats.
2
3 beats
3 beats
Technically, there is no "dividing" notes in music, as this is not necessary or used at all.But if I had to answer, 1 dotted half note = 3 beatsso thinking mathematically:2 dotted half notes = 6 beats1 half note = 2 beats6 divided by 2 is three.So two dotted half notes divided by one half note is three beats.
A whole note tied to a half note tied to a quarter note gets seven beats.
It has TWO.
'One' Half Note = 2 Beats therefore, there are 2 half notes in 4 beats.
3
there is a half beat in a minim
