Below are listed fudging intervals (or '''fudgers''') which are all ratios between two 15-limit [[tonality diamond]] intervals (listed in the fifth column) which come within a comma of less than eight cents (listed in the fourth column) of a 15-limit tonality diamond interval (listed in the third column). If the [[comma]] is less than 1, the fudger is flat of the interval it approximates; if greater than 1, sharp of it. | Below are listed fudging intervals (or '''fudgers''') which are all ratios between two 15-limit [[tonality diamond]] intervals (listed in the fifth column) which come within a comma of less than eight cents (listed in the fourth column) of a 15-limit tonality diamond interval (listed in the third column).

However, indiscriminate tempering can lead to problems. For example, [[112/75]], 121/81, 338/225, 182/121 and 176/117 are all fudged fifths, with commas [[676/675]], [[364/363]], [[352/351]], [[243/242]] and [[225/224]]. Tempering them all out leads to 34d tempering, a rather crude system by comparison. | However, indiscriminate tempering can lead to problems.
