Patience taps her right foot on the pedal of her rainbow organ in each of these animations. She taps at a different speed in each one. But in 3 of them, her foot-tapping is not in time with the beat of the fancy marching music! Which movie is she tapping at the correct speed?
(Due to the Adobe company killing off the Flash Player, chances are that you can't hear the music that you're supposed to hear on this Web page! So in this new case, just guess which movie has the music. That one is correct answer!)
Movie A
Movie B
Movie C
Movie D

The tempo of the music is 120 beats per minute. In Movie A, Patience taps her foot too slow: 100 foot taps per minute; in Movie B, she taps her foot too fast: 156 foot taps per minute; in Movie D, she taps her foot way too fast: 170 foot taps per minute! However, in Movie C, she taps her foot at 120 foot taps per minute(there's that number again: 120) which is the correct, matching speed! As Goldilocks would say, "It's just right!"
