In [[13-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''78/55''' is the '''larger tridecimal tritone''', measuring about 604.9¢. It is [[275/273]] (gassorma, about 12.6¢) flat of [[10/7]]. Its inversion is the smaller tridecimal tritone, [[55/39]], and the interval that separates them is the small [[comma]] [[3042/3025]], about 9.7¢. This difference can be negligible, and tempering out this comma allows the 600¢ half-octave to function as both tridecimal tritones. Thus, every even-numbered [[EDO]] system contains a close approximation to these intervals.
