'''32/31''' is the '''small tricesimoprimal quartertone''' measuring about 55{{cent}}. It differs from [[33/32]], the undecimal quartertone, by [[1024/1023]] (approx. 1.69{{cent}}). It differs from [[31/30]], another tricesimoprimal quartertone, by [[961/960]] (approx. 1.80{{cent}}); they together make [[16/15]]. | '''32/31''' is the '''small tricesimoprimal quartertone''' measuring about 55{{cent}}.
