'''6WTN''', if the attempt is made to use it as an actual scale, would divide the [[just perfect fifth]] into three equal parts, each of size 233.985 cents, which is to say (3/2)^(1/3) as a frequency ratio, alternating these with three equal steps of another interval between 200 and 266.667 cents. This will create three equally-spaced intervals between an interval between 600 and 800 cents and the just perfect fifth. If we want to consider it to be a temperament, it tempers out [[16/15]], [[21/20]], [[28/27]], [[81/80]], and [[256/243]] as well as [[5edo]].
'''6WTN''', if the attempt is made to use it as an actual scale, would optimally divide the [[just perfect fifth]] into three equal parts, each of size 233.985 cents, which is to say (3/2)^(1/3) as a frequency ratio, alternating these with three equal steps of another interval between 200 and 266.667 cents in its patent tunings. This will create three equally-spaced intervals between an interval between 600 and 800 cents and the just perfect fifth. If we want to consider it to be a temperament, it tempers out [[16/15]], [[21/20]], [[28/27]], [[81/80]], and [[256/243]] as well as [[5edo]].
