Its inversion is [[6_5|6/5]], the 5-limit minor third. It differs from the Pythagorean major sixth of [[27_16|27/16]] (about 905.9¢) by the syntonic comma of [[81_80|81/80]] (about 21.5¢). This means that in systems which temper out the syntonic comma, such as [[12edo]] and [[meantone]] systems, 5/3 and 27/16 are conflated.

| | == Approximation == |
| <br />
| | 5/3 is very accurately approximated by [[19edo]] (14\19), and hence the [[enneadecal]] temperament. |
| 5/3 has a more mellow sound than 27/16, owing to its relative smallness.<br />
