Intervals can be measured also giving their [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_ratio|(frequency) ratio]]. For instance the major third as [[5_4|5/4]] or the pure Fifth [[3_2|3/2]]. When combining sizes given in ratios, you have to multiply oder divide. | Intervals can be measured also giving their [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_ratio|(frequency) ratio]].
