The '''Pythagorean''' or '''ditonic comma or Threerish 12-tone's comma''' is the interval with the ratio '''531441/524288''' ([[monzo]]: {{monzo| -19 12 }}). It could also be called the 12-comma as it is the amount by which twelve fifths exceed seven octaves, or in other words (3/2)<sup>12</sup>/2<sup>7</sup> and it also can be written as the ratio between the apotome and the Pythagorean minor second, ([[2187/2048]])/([[256/243]]), and as the ratio between the Pythagorean augmented fourth and the Pythagorean diminished fifth, ([[729/512]])/([[1024/729]]). In addition, it also equates six [[9/8]] major seconds with an octave.
