Since 15 is a perfect fifth above 10 (15/10 = [[3/2]]), [[List_of_root-3rd-P5_triads_in_JI|root-3rd-P5 triads]] can be formed with the 10th harmonic as root and 15th harmonic as perfect fifth. The simplest and most familiar example is the classic minor triad 10:12:15 -- a [[6/5]] with a [[5/4]] stacked on top of it. Another is the Barbados triad, 10:13:15 -- a [[13/10]] on bottom and a [[15/13]] on top. And a particularly uncommon but mentionable example is the [[23-limit]] inframinor triad 20:23:30. | Since 15 is a perfect fifth above 10 (15/10 = [[3/2]]), [[List_of_root-3rd-P5_triads_in_JI|root-3rd-P5 triads]] can be formed with the 10th harmonic as root and 15th harmonic as perfect fifth.
