Most EDO notation systems, including the near-universal [[ups and downs notation]], are built upon [[chain-of-fifths notation]]. How then should an EDO be notated if it has two mappings of 3: 3+ and 3-? | Most EDO notation systems, including the near-universal [[ups and downs notation]], are built upon [[chain-of-fifths notation]].

The most straightforward solution is to just choose whichever 3 is closer to just 3/1, and pretend that’s the "real 3" for notation purposes. Treat the other 3 as just another prime, like 5 or 7. In most cases, I advise to do that. | The most straightforward solution is to just choose whichever 3 is closer to just 3/1, and pretend that’s the "real 3" for notation purposes.
