'''3afdo''' ([[AFDO|arithmetic frequency division of the octave]]), or '''3odo''' ([[otonal division]] of the octave), if the attempt is made to use it as an actual scale, would divide the [[octave]] into three arithmetically equal parts, and may also be known as [[Harmonic mode|mode 3 of the harmonic series]] or the [[Overtone scale #Over-n scales|Over-3]] scale. The notes of this AFDO form a 3:4:5 triad (first inversion major triad).
'''3afdo''' ([[AFDO|arithmetic frequency division of the octave]]), or '''3odo''' ([[otonal division]] of the octave), if the attempt is made to use it as an actual [[tuning system]], would divide the [[octave]] into three arithmetically equal parts. It is a superset of [[2afdo]] and a subset of [[4afdo]]. As a [[scale]] it may also be known as [[harmonic mode|mode 3 of the harmonic series]] or the [[overtone scale #Over-n scales|Over-3]] scale. The notes of this AFDO form a 3:4:5 triad (first rotation of the [[just major triad]]) on root position.
