In 31-limit just intonation, 31/24 is either the tricesimoprimal ultramajor third or tricesimoprimal semidiminished fourth. It is sharp of the Pythagorean major third (81/64) by 248/243, and flat of the perfect fourth (4/3) by 32/31. It can be used as a generator tuning for the sensi temperament, especially for the 5-limit sensipent temperament.

Approximation

31/24 is very closely approximated by 24\65.
