Tempering it out leads to the rank-3 [[hemifamity]] temperament, which splits the septimal quartertone [[36/35]] into two equal parts, each representing 81/80~64/63. Rank-2 temperaments that temper it out include [[hemififths]] and [[amity]], to name two. [[Edo]]s that temper it out include [[12edo|12]], {{EDOs| 29, 34, 41, 46, 53, 58, 87, 94, 99, 111, 140, 145, 152, 239, 292, 391 }}, etc. See [[Hemifamity family]] for the rank-3 family where it is tempered out. See [[Hemifamity temperaments]] for a collection of rank-2 temperaments where it is tempered out.

== Sagittal notation ==
In the [[Sagittal]] system, the downward version of this comma (possibly tempered) is represented by the sagittal {{sagittal | !( }} and is called the '''7/5 kleisma''', or '''7/5k''' for short, because the simplest ratio it notates is 5:7, as for example in B:F{{sagittal | !( }}.
