Answer 1

The number of beats in each measure typically depends on the time signature of the music piece. Here are some common time signatures:

- **4/4 time**: There are 4 beats in each measure. This is one of the most common time signatures in Western music.
- **8/8 time**: This is less common and would typically have 8 beats in each measure.
- **16/16 time**: This would indicate 16 beats in each measure, which is also quite rare.
- **32/32 time**: This would mean 32 beats in each measure, which is very uncommon in traditional music.

If you are referring to a standard time signature without further context, the most common answer would be **four** beats in a measure, corresponding to 4/4 time.
