'''31/16''' = 2<sup>−4</sup> ⋅ 31, the octave-reduced 31st harmonic.
In [[31-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''31/16''' is either the '''tricesimoprimal ultramajor seventh''' or '''tricesimoprimal semidiminished octave''', which is also the [[octave reduction|octave-reduced]] [[31/1|31st]] [[harmonic]]. It is sharp of the [[243/128|Pythagorean major seventh (243/128)]] by [[248/243]], and flat of the octave by [[32/31]].
