In [[5-limit]] [[Just Intonation]], '''6/5''' is the '''classic minor third''', measuring about 315.6[[cent|¢]]. It is sharp of the [[Pythagorean]] minor third of [[32/27]] (about 294.1¢) as well as the 300¢ minor third of [[4edo]], [[12edo]] and all other 4n-[[EDO|edos]]. It arises in the [[harmonic series]] between the 5th and 6th overtones and appears in the [[5-limit]] otonal triad of 4:5:6. A 5-limit minor triad in just intonation can be written 10:12:15, with 6/5 falling between 10 and 12, [[5/4]] falling between 12 and 15, and [[3/2]] falling between 10 and 15.

In higher-limit JI, 6/5 is only one of many minor thirds. A popular one in the [[7-limit]] is [[7/6]] (about 266.9¢), the septimal subminor third, which is [[36/35]] (about 48.8¢) flat of 6/5. Another in the [[13-limit]] is [[13/11]] (about 289.2¢), which is [[66/65]] (about 26.4¢) flat of 6/5. Both of these are more complex intervals than 6/5 and have their own character to them.

It is very accurately approximated by [[19edo]] (5\19), and hence the [[enneadecal]] temperament.
