Answer 1

To solve the question, we need to sum the durations of three quarter notes.

1. A quarter note is worth 1 beat.
2. Therefore, three quarter notes would be 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 beats.

Now, let's determine the equivalent note value for 3 beats:

• A whole note is worth 4 beats.
• A half note is worth 2 beats.
• A quarter note is worth 1 beat.
• An eighth note is worth 0.5 beats.

Since 3 beats is equal to a whole note plus a half note (4 + 2 = 6) or a whole note plus two quarter notes (1 + 1 + 1 = 3), the correct answer would be a half note with a dot.

This means the correct response is: An image shows a half note with a small dot to the right of the oval. This would indicate that the note is worth 3 beats.
