99/80, the undecimal submajor third, also known as the cake third, is exactly 8/7 flat of the very accurate half-octave of 99/70, and so is accurately represented in any even edo with a good 7, of which the first truly good example is 26edo. The alternate name, cake third, refers to the fact that tempering out 45/44, the cake comma, leads to a temperament that slices 99/80 exactly in half (into two 11/10s).

It is the sum of a 9/8 whole tone and an 11/10 submajor second, and so is 8019/8000 sharp of 100/81.
