Variations of the fifth (whether just or not) appear in most music of the world. On a harmonic instrument, the third harmonic is usually the loudest which is not an octave double of the fundamental. Treatment of the perfect fifth as consonant historically precedes treatment of the major third (see [[5_4|5:4]]) as consonant. 3:2 is the simple JI interval best approximated by [[12edo]], after the [[octave]]. | Variations of the fifth (whether just or not) appear in most music of the world.
