'''120/119''' is a 17-limit superparticular ratio of about 14.49 cents. It is the difference between [[20/17]] and [[7/6]], [[17/10]] and [[12/7]], or [[30/17]] and [[7/4]]. Tempering this comma allows you to assign 10:12:15:17 as the inverse of 4:5:6:7, a much simpler version of what would otherwise be 70:84:105:120. [[William Lynch's Thoughts on Septimal Harmony and 22 EDO|William Lynch]] calls this the minor tetrad, and so equating it with the inverse of the major tetrad is quite useful. | '''120/119''' is a [[17-limit]] [[superparticular]] ratio of about 14.49 cents.
