In [[13-limit]] [[Just Intonation]], 13/8, as an octave-reduced 13th harmonic, is treated as a basic component of harmony. In the harmonic series and in chords based on it, 13/8 sits between the more familiar consonances of 3/2 and 7/4, separated from each by the [[superparticular]] ratios [[13_12|13/12]] and [[14_13|14/13]], respectively. It differs from the 11-limit neutral sixth [[18_11|18/11]] by 144/143, about 12.1¢.

| | '''13/8''' is the '''(lesser) tridecimal neutral sixth''', which measures about 840.5¢, falling between the categories of minor sixth and major sixth. In [[13-limit]] [[just intonation]], 13/8, as an octave-reduced 13th harmonic, is treated as a basic component of harmony. In the harmonic series and in chords based on it, 13/8 sits between the more familiar consonances of [[3/2]] and [[7/4]], separated from each by the [[superparticular]] ratios [[13/12]] and [[14/13]], respectively. The word "lesser" is added when necessary to differentiate it from [[64/39]], another tridecimal neutral sixth. It may also be treated as a type of augmented fifth, as the sum of [[5/4]] and [[13/10]]. |

| | 13/8 is a fraction of a cent away from the neutral sixth found in the [[10edo|10''n''-edo]] family (7\10). |
| | |
| | This interval is a ratio of two consecutive Fibonacci numbers, therefore it approximates the [[golden ratio]]. In this case, 13/8 is ~7.4 [[cent|¢]] sharp of the golden ratio. |
