'''125/81''', the '''triptolemaic augmented fifth''' or '''Trithagorean ultrafifth''', is a [[5-limit]] just interval equal to the Pythagorean augmented fifth [[6561/4096]] lowered by three syntonic commas (([[81/80]])<sup>3</sup>). It is also equal to [[25/16]] lowered by [[81/80]] and to [[128/81]] lowered by [[128/125]]. It also appears as a notable interval in the [[Trithagorean]] scale / [[3.5 subgroup]], being the [[3/1|tritave]]-reduction of ([[5/3]])<sup>3</sup>.
