The Pythagorean diminished fourth, 8192/6561, may be reached by subtracting two 81/64 intervals from the perfect octave. It is flat of the classic major third, 5/4, by the schisma (around 2 cents), and, as a result, the Pythagorean diminished fourth is in fact rather consonant and some may consider it a major third (see Interval region).
