Act 1 of "Macbeth" had seven scenes.
Specifically, the first scene introduced the three witches. The second scene involved the Sergeant's report on Macbeth's brave and noble defense of king and country against traitorous Scots and invading Norwegians. The third scene matched the predictions of the witches, with their fulfillment in the bestowing of the lands and titles of the Thane of Cawdor upon Macbeth.
The fourth scene revealed the trusting esteem in which King Duncan I (d. August 14, 1040) held Macbeth and his intention to spend the night at the Macbeth castle of Inverness. In contrast, the fifth scene showed the single-minded, raging ambitions of Lady Macbeth regarding herself and her husband. The sixthscene once again told of the King's bestowing of favors and honors upon Macbeth and his wife. The seventh scene worked out Macbeth's hesitations to resort to murder and his wife's determination to commit the heinous crime.

What does the device of the aside used by Macbeth convey to the audience about his character?
Macbeth's soliloquies show his true thoughts and his true character, because a theme in Macbeth is appearance vs reality.

How many acts were in a Shakespearean play Macbeth?
All Shakespearean plays, including Macbeth, are divided into five acts. This has to do less with the way Shakespeare wrote them and more to do with how long a candle would burn before needing to be replaced. Indoor performances were by candlelight and thus had breaks at the end of the acts.
