The '''undecimal octatonic comma''' ({{monzo|legend=1| 15 8 0 0 -8 }}, [[ratio]]: 214 990 848 / 214 358 881) is a [[small comma]] in the [[11-limit]] (specifically the [[2.3.11 subgroup]]), measuring about 5.10 [[cent]]s. It is the amount by which a stack of eight [[12/11]] intervals exceeds the octave.  
The '''undecimal octatonic comma''' ({{monzo|legend=1| 15 8 0 0 -8 }}, [[ratio]]: 214 990 848 / 214 358 881) is a [[small comma]] in the [[11-limit]] (specifically the [[2.3.11 subgroup]]), measuring about 5.10 [[cent]]s. It is the amount by which a stack of eight [[12/11]] intervals exceeds the octave.  
In terms of other commas, it is the difference between the [[Pythagorean comma]] and a stack of two [[Alpharabian comma]]s. In the full 11-limit, it factors into simpler commas as ([[46656/46585]])⋅([[161280/161051]]), the latter being the difference between 46656/46585 and [[9801/9800]]; thus it can be expressed as (46656/46585)<sup>2</sup>/(9801/9800) as well.
