In three eight time what is the value of a dotted quarter note?
A dotted quarter note gets 3 beats in 3/8 meter. The lower number in the time signature means that the 8th notes gets 1 beat, so every note value is doubled. Therefore, the quarter note, which normally gets 1 beat in 4/4, is doubled to 2 beats. The dot is equal to 1/2 beat, so doubled it gets 1. 2+1=3 beats.
How many beats does dotted quarter note get?
It gets 3/4 of a beat. If you count in 4/4 meter, and the Dotted eighth note is on the first beat, it's count would be: 1 & 2 & etc. The action of the dot increases the value of the eighth note by half it's value. Half the value of an eighth note is a sixteenth note. So a dotted eighth note = eighth note + sixteenth note A good website that illustrates how dots work is: http://www.8notes.com/school/theory/dots_and_ties.asp -Mimi
