C Natural is a whole step above B flat. If you look at a piano, a half step above B Flat is B Natural, and one more half step above that is C Natural. So it's a whole step from B Flat to C Natural.
B flat. I picture it on the piano, one key is one semi-tone or half a tone. Two of these makes one whole tone, or one whole step. One half step down from C would be the note B, another half step would then go to B flat. That is one whole step.

C#/Db is a half step above C.

Given the graphic capability of this site, you are going to have to use some imagination! <---------a---------> <---a-b---><--b--> +-----------+-------+ |...............|..........| |.......P......|....Q...| |...............|..........| +-----------+-------+ |.......R......|....S....| |...............|..........| +-----------+-------+ In the above graphic, P, S and the whole figure are meant to be squares. The total area is P+Q+R+S = a2 P = (a-b)2 Q = b*(a-b) = (a-b)*b = a*b - b2 R = (a-b)*b = a*b = a*b - b2 and S = b2 Now, P = {P+Q+R+S} - Q - R - S = a2 - ab + b2 - ab + b2 - b2 = a2 - 2ab + b2
C Natural is a whole step above B flat. If you look at a piano, a half step above B Flat is B Natural, and one more half step above that is C Natural. So it's a whole step from B Flat to C Natural.

C is one step above B
A whole step consists of two half steps, the smallest note division excluding semitones, so one half step brings the pitch to an "A" and the second up to "B flat"
whole step. you go from B flat to B natural. from B natural you go to A. each of those steps are half steps. 1/2 + 1/2 = 1 whole step.
The answer is C. Since B is one half step up from B flat, and C is one half step up from B, and two halves make a whole :)
B flat. I picture it on the piano, one key is one semi-tone or half a tone. Two of these makes one whole tone, or one whole step. One half step down from C would be the note B, another half step would then go to B flat. That is one whole step.
The interval from B to C is a minor second (m2) or a half step.

B (B natural).
An interval is the distance between two pitches. These intervals are measured in half-steps and whole steps. For example, a half-step is like C to Db. A whole step would be C to D. A major scale is made up of these steps as so: C MAJOR Whole step, Whole step, Half step, Whole step, Whole step, Whole step, Half step. C to D, D to E, E to F, F to G, G to A, A to B, B to C WWHWWWH You may have noticed that from E to F and from B to C it was a half step just as if it were from C to Db. This is because these pitches are simply a half step away from each other.
