In a regular 4/4 time signature, a whole rest gets four beats of rests.

∙ 13y agoit depends on which rest note you're talking about. If it kind of looks like a fancy 7, that's an eighth rest, and counts for half a beat. If it looks like a weird squiggle thing, that's a quarter rest, and counts for one beat. If it looks like a little black rectangle sitting on top of the middle line, that's a half rest, and counts for 2 beats. If it looks like a black rectangle that sits under the middle line, that's a whole rest, and counts for 4 beats. There are other rests too, but those are the basics.

∙ 13y agoLike notes, there are different kinds of rest, each with its own value.

∙ 13y agoIt depends on the shape and size of the rest. There are quarter rests, half rests, whole rests, etc.

∙ 9y agoIt depends on the time signature. For example, in 4/4, it has 4 beats. In 2/4, it has 2 beats, etc.

Different drawing of musical notes and rest?
Each note or rest determines the amount of beats in for a note or rest. The time signature of a song consists of two numbers, the top number represents how many beats in a measure, and the bottom number represents how many beats a whole note gets. In 4/4 timing (4/4 being the time signature) a whole note/rest gets four beats and a measure consists of four beats. Therefore: Half note/rest- Two Beats Quarter note/rest- One beat Eighth note/rest- Half of a beat Sixteenth note/rest- Quarter of a beat and so on to 32nd, 64th, etc. Another coming time signature includes 2/2 (cut time) where a whole note/rest gets two beats and there are two beats in a measure. Therefore: Half note/rest- One Beat Quarter note/rest- Half of a beat Eighth note/rest- Quarter of a beat Etc. Other common time signatures include 3/4 (three beats to a measure), 2/4, and 6/8. Follow the same process in deriving the number of beats in a note or rest.
