To find the duration equivalent to all of the given rhythmic values together, we need to add up the durations of each note.
Let's assign the following durations to each note:
- Quarter note: 1 beat
- Sixteenth note: 1/4 beat
- Eighth note: 1/2 beat
- Half note: 2 beats
- Dotted half note: 3 beats
- Whole note: 4 beats
Now let's add up the durations:
1 beat + (1/4 beat + 1/4 beat) + 1 beat + (1/2 beat) + 1 beat = 4 beats
Therefore, the note below that is equivalent in duration to all of the given rhythmic values together is a whole note.
