In music notation, a semiquaver is a quarter of a beat, while a minim is equal to two beats. Therefore, to determine how many semiquavers equal a minim, we need to consider that there are four semiquavers in a crotchet (quarter note). Since a minim is equivalent to four crotchets, it follows that there are sixteen semiquavers in a minim.
Well, darling, in Music Theory land, we play by the rules. So, let me break it down for you - there are 8 semiquavers in a minim. That's the name of the game, honey!
There are eight semiquaver beats in a minim beat.

There are two minums in a semibreve. There are two Crotchets in a Minum. There are two Quavers in a Crotchet. There are two Semiquavers in a Quaver. There are two DemiSemiQuavers in a SemiQuavers. There are two HemiDemiSemiQuavers in a DemiSemiQuavers.
There are four semiquavers in a crotchet.
There are four semiquavers in a crotchet.
Two!
There are eight semiquavers in a minim, which is also equivalent to two crotchets.
There are eight semiquaver beats in a minim beat.
There are eight semiquaver beats in a minim beat.
4 quavers = one minim
There are 16 semiquavers in a semibreve. A minim is worth two beats and a semibreve is worth four beats. So, a minim should be worth half of what a semibreve is worth. The answer is 8.
A minim is also known as the half note. When the duration of the note is considered, it contains two quarter notes (crotchets) or four eighth notes (quavers) or eight sixteenth notes (semiquavers) etc.
Well, there are 2 and 1/2 beats in a minim tied to quaver. This means that there would be 10 semiquavers equal to this value! Hope this explanation helps! :)
There are six quavers in a dotted minim.

A semiquaver (16th note) takes 1/4 beats. Two crotchets (quarter notes) take 2 beats. Hence in duration, 8 semiquavers are equivalent to two crotchets.
There are three crotchet rests = dotted minim rest.
