In [[7-limit]] [[Just intonation|Just Intonation]], 12/7 is the septimal supermajor sixth of about 933.1¢. It represents the interval between the 12th and 7th harmonics and appears in chords such as 4:5:7:9:12. It differs from the 5-limit major sixth of [[5/3]] by [[36/25]] -- the septimal quartertone -- a [[superparticular|superparticular]] interval of about 48.8¢. It differs from the Pythagorean major sixth of [[27/16]] by [[64/63]] -- Archytas' comma -- about 27.3¢. And finally, it differs from the harmonic seventh -- [[7/4]], about 968.8¢ -- by [[49/48]] -- the large septimal diesis or slendro diesis -- about 35.7¢. 12/7 is the inversion of the septimal subminor third of [[7/6]].
