Multiply this number by 6 (10 x 6 = 60 seconds = 1 minute) to obtain the number of heartbeats per minute or the average heart rate.ow to determine the heart rate when it is lower than 50 beats per minute (regular rhythm): 1  Count the number of large squares between two successive R waves. 2  Divide 300 by the number of large squares obtained in #1. 3  The quotient is the heart rate (cardiac cycles per minute or heart beat per minute).
