Best Answer

An eighth note takes up 1/8th of a measure. The length of the measure is determined by the length of the time signature. For instance, in common (or 4/4 time) there are 4 beats in a measure. A whole note takes 4 beats, a half note takes 2, a quarter note takes 1 beat and an eighth note gets 1/2 a beat.
