'''48/47''' is a [[47-limit]] (specifically 2.3.47-subgroup) [[comma]]. It is the amount by which the octave-reduced 47th harmonic [[47/32]] falls short of the [[3/2|perfect fifth (3/2)]]. It is significant in the [[Functional Just System]] as the formal comma to translate a Pythagorean interval to a nearby quadracesimoseptimal (47-limit) interval.
'''48/47''' is a [[medium comma|medium]] [[47-limit]] (specifically 2.3.47-subgroup) [[comma]]. It is the amount by which the octave-reduced 47th harmonic [[47/32]] falls short of the [[3/2|perfect fifth (3/2)]]. It is significant in the [[Functional Just System]] and [[Helmholtz–Ellis notation]] as the formal comma to translate a Pythagorean interval to a nearby quadracesimoseptimal (47-limit) interval.
