Let's solve this
"Music Math - Level 1" worksheet step by step. The goal is to
add the beats of musical notes and rests.

🎵 Understanding Note and Rest Values
In standard 4/4 time (which is assumed here unless otherwise stated), the beat values are:
| Symbol | Name | Beat Value |
|--------|------------------|------------|
| 🎵 `♩` | Quarter note | 1 beat |
| 🎵 `𝅘𝅥` | Eighth note | ½ beat |
| 🎵 `𝅗𝅥` | Half note | 2 beats |
| 🎵 `𝅝` | Whole note | 4 beats |
| 🎵 `𝄽` | Quarter rest | 1 beat |
| 🎵 `𝅘𝅥𝅮` | Eighth rest | ½ beat |
| 🎵 `𝅗𝅥𝅮` | Half rest | 2 beats |
| 🎵 `𝅝𝅮` | Whole rest | 4 beats |
