All Major scales follow this exact pattern: W W H W W W H (whole, whole, half, whole, whole, whole, half). The distance between the first two notes in a Major scale is a whole step. The distance between the 3rd and 4th notes and the 7th and 8th notes are half steps.

What is the correct pattern for whole steps and half steps for the major scale?
Every major scale features the exact same pattern of whole steps (W) and half steps (H): W-W-H-W-W-W-H.
What is the pattern of whole steps and half steps in the natural minor scale?
In the natural minor scale, there is a whole step between the 7th note and the root. ... The step pattern for the natural minor scale is as follows: Root note (C), whole step, half step, whole step, whole step, half step, whole step, whole step to octave note (C).
What is the whole step pattern?
A whole step joins the lower tetrachord to the upper tetrachord. The upper tetrachord duplicates the pattern in the lower one: whole step, whole step, half step. If we use W for whole step and H for half step, the major scale pattern is W–W–H, Whole–step connection, W–W–H.
Is a scale that has a whole step and half step pattern?
There are two tetrachords in the major scale, each with the same order half- and whole-steps (W-W-H). ... MINOR SCALES: There are 3 forms of minor scales: natural, harmonic and melodic.
