Question

In 6/8 time, there are 8 beats per measure, and the 8th note equals one beat.
A. True
B. False

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Explanation:

If we assume that the whole note is worth four beats, then each pair of eighth notes is worth one beat. This means that individually, each half of the pair is worth half a beat.

Answer 2

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In 6/8 time, there is only two beats per measure, and a dotted quarter note (equal to 3 8th notes) has one beat.
