	1 step of [[12276edo]], useful for measurement of 11-limit intervals and commas. Given that 12276edo factors as 2<sup>2</sup> × 3<sup>2</sup> × 11 × 31, a prima is a whole number division of one degree of [[12edo]], [[22edo]], [[31edo]], [[99edo]] and [[198edo]]. The Pythagorean comma is represented by 240 prima, and the syntonic comma by 220. A prima is almost exactly three tuning units.		1 step of [[12276edo]], useful for measurement of 11-limit intervals and commas.

The Pythagorean comma is represented by 240 prima, and the syntonic comma by 220 (and the [[schisma]] is therefore represented as 20 prima). A prima is almost exactly three tuning units.
