This formula is used, among other places, in the [[zero-damage method]] for computing miniaverage tunings of regular temperaments (see here: [[Generator embedding optimization#Convert to generators]]).

And it turns out this formula works fine when subjected to a units analysis. <math>\mathrm{U}</math> has units of primes. And <math>M</math> has units of generators per primes. So we have <math>\small 𝗽\!·\!((𝗴</math>/<math>\small 𝗽)\!·\!𝗽)^{-1}</math>. The <math>\small 𝗽</math>'s on the inside of the parens cancel, and we're left with <math>\small 𝗽𝗴^{-1}</math>, or in other words, <math>\small 𝗽</math>/<math>\small 𝗴</math>, which are indeed the units of <math>G</math>.
