'''40/39''' is the difference between the third octave of the third [[5/4]] (40 = 5 ⋅ 2<sup>3</sup>) and the fifth of the thirteenth partial of the same root (39 = 13 ⋅ 3). If tempered out, it tempers together [[5-limit]] and [[13-limit]]] intervals. However, it does not assosciate major with greater neutral and minor with lesser neutral as one would expect (see [[65/64]]), but the other way around. In particular [[5/4]]~[[39/32]] and [[6/5]]~[[16/13]]. | '''40/39''' is the difference between the third octave of the third [[5/4]] (40 = 5 ⋅ 2<sup>3</sup>) and the fifth of the thirteenth partial of the same root (39 = 13 ⋅ 3).
