text: If the tempo is 60 BPM and the time signature is 6/8 (which means the eighth note gets the beat), then an eighth note lasts 1 second and a measure lasts 6 seconds which means that a whole rest might be six seconds long (since often whole rests indicate the entire measure no matter what), and some might use a whole note for the whole measure in which case that would also be a 6 second whole note.
