== Relations to other 5-limit intervals ==
[[81/80]] is the difference between a large number of intervals of the 5-limit, so that if tempered, it simplifies the structure of the 5-limit drastically. For some differences in higher limits, see [[#Relations to other superparticular ratios]]. A few important ones are that 81/80 is:
* The amount by which [[2187/2048]] exceeds [[135/128]].
* The amount by which [[25/24]] exceeds [[250/243]]).
* The amount by which [[135/128]] exceeds [[25/24]].
* The amount by which [[128/125]] exceeds [[2048/2025]].
* The amount by which [[27/25]] exceeds [[16/15]].
* The amount by which [[16/15]] exceeds [[256/243]].
