37/36, or the 37-limit Wyschnegradsky ~quartertone, is a 2.3.37 subgroup comma. It is the amount by which the octave-reduced 37th harmonic 37/32 exceeds the Pythagorean (major) whole tone of 9/8. It is significant in Helmholtz-Ellis notation as the formal comma to translate a Pythagorean interval to a nearby tricesimoseptimal (37-limit) interval.
