[[Tempering out]] this comma equates the 7/5 with 10/7, its octave complement, leading to temperaments where the square root of two does service for both. See [[Jubilismic family]] for the rank-3 family where it is tempered out. See [[Jubilismic clan]] for the rank-2 clan where it is tempered out. | |||
Equal temperaments tempering out 50/49 include [[12edo]], [[22edo]], [[26edo]], [[38edo]], [[48edo]] and [[54edo]]. | |||
