Up to the 7-limit, Hahn distance has a very nice formula give by
||3^a 5^b 7^c||_hahn = max(|a|, |b|, |c|, |a+b|, |b+c|, |c+a|, |a+b+c|)
||3^a 5^b 7^c||_hahn = (|a|+|b|+c|+|a+b+c|)/2 = max(|a|, |b|, |c|, |a+b|, |b+c|, |c+a|, |a+b+c|)
We may take this formula (or the similar formulas we would obtain for higher odd limits) and apply it to any triple of real numbers
