'''736/729''', the '''23-limit Tenney/Cage comma''', is a 2.3.23 subgroup comma. It is the amount by which 23/16 (the 23rd harmonic) exceeds the Pythagorean augemented fourth (729/512). It is significant in [[Helmholtz-Ellis notation]] as the formal comma to translate a Pythagorean interval to a nearby 23-limit (vicesimotertial) interval. | '''736/729''', the '''23-limit Tenney/Cage comma''', is a 2.3.23 subgroup comma.
