In [[7-limit]] [[Just Intonation]], '''7/5''' is a '''narrow tritone''' (or '''Huygens' tritone''') measuring about 582.5¢. It is a noticeable 17.5¢ away from the 600¢ half-octave (square root of 2) tritone of [[12edo]] and every even-numbered [[EDO]]. It represents the difference between [[7/4]] and [[5/4]]. | In [[7-limit]] [[Just Intonation]], '''7/5''' is a '''narrow [[tritone]]''' (or '''Huygens' tritone''') measuring about 582.5¢.

7/5 is notable for its low [[Harmonic Entropy|harmonic entropy]], and is often reported to sound more consonant than the half-octave tritone; indeed it appears in the 4:5:6:7 tetrad that forms the basis of consonance in 7-limit JI. Its inversion is [[10/7]], which measures about 617.5¢, and these two septimal tritones differ by the [[superparticular]] interval [[50/49]], about 35.0¢. Systems which temper out 50/49 will equate 7/5 and [[10/7]], usually to the 600¢ half-octave. | 7/5 is notable for its low [[Harmonic Entropy|harmonic entropy]], and is often reported to sound more consonant than the half-octave tritone; indeed it appears in the 4:5:6:7 tetrad that forms the basis of consonance in 7-limit JI.
