'''10/1''' is the '''10th harmonic''' or the '''decade''' (symbol: '''dec'''); three octaves above [[5/4]]. As an [[interval size measure]] it sees many applications in audio engineering.  
'''10/1''', the '''10th harmonic''' or the '''decade''' (symbol: '''dec'''), is the [[harmonic]] past [[9/1]] and before [[11/1]]. It is three [[octave]]s above [[5/4]]. As a coarse [[interval size measure]] it sees many applications in audio engineering. In harmony, it can be approached as a stack of [[2/1]] and [[5/1]], making chords like 1-2-10, 1-5-10, or 1-2-5-10.
 
It is sometimes known as a ''decave'' or ''decatave''.
