A time signature is a numeric symbol written at the beginning of a piece of sheet music, typically expressed as a fraction. The top number denotes the number of beats in a measure, while the bottom number represents the note value that receives one beat. For example, in 4\/4 time, the top number indicates four beats per measure, and the bottom number indicates that a quarter note receives one beat. This time signature is often referred to as &#8220;common time&#8221; and is prevalent in a wide range of musical genres.
