Time Signatures Quiz
How many beats fit in a measure of 4/4, 3/4 or 2/4 time?
About this quiz
This quiz is about beats, measures and time signatures. You will match time signatures such as 4/4, 3/4 and 2/4 with the right number of beats, explain what the top and bottom numbers mean and what a bar line is used for. You will also count how many quarter notes, eighth notes or half notes fit in a measure and choose which notes can complete an unfinished measure.
Each round has 8 random questions drawn from a bank of 21. You need 60% correct to pass, and when you are done you can review your answers.
