I'll solve this musical math problem by identifying each note and determining how many beats it gets in common time (4/4).

Let me work through each note systematically:

Row 1: Whole note (𝅝)
- A whole note gets 4 beats

Row 2: Half note (𝅥)
- A half note gets 2 beats

Row 3: Quarter note ()
- A quarter note gets 1 beat

Row 4: Eighth note (♪)
- An eighth note gets 1/2 beat (or 0.5 beats)

Row 5: Dotted half note (𝅥.)
- A dotted half note = half note + dot (which adds half the value)
- 2 beats + 1 beat = 3 beats

Row 6: Two beamed eighth notes (♫)
- Each eighth note = 1/2 beat
- Two eighth notes together = 1/2 + 1/2 = 1 beat

Row 7: Dotted quarter note (♩.)
- A dotted quarter note = quarter note + dot (which adds half the value)
- 1 beat + 0.5 beats = 1.5 beats (or 1½ beats)

Let me verify my answers:
1. Whole note = 4 beats ✓
2. Half note = 2 beats ✓
3. Quarter note = 1 beat ✓
4. Eighth note = 1/2 beat ✓
5. Dotted half note = 3 beats ✓
6. Two eighth notes = 1 beat ✓
7. Dotted quarter note = 1.5 beats ✓

Final Answer:
1. 4 beats
2. 2 beats
3. 1 beat
4. 1/2 beat (or 0.5 beat)
5. 3 beats
6. 1 beat
7. 1½ beats (or 1.5 beats)
