'''750/749''' is a 107-limit superparticular interval measuring 2.31 cents. It is known as the '''ancient Chinese tempering comma.''' The perfect fifth of [[12edo]] is approximated by [[749/500]] = 1.498 as frequency ratio, and thus can be approximated by flattening [[3/2]] by this comma. | '''750/749''' is a 107-limit superparticular interval measuring 2.31 cents.
