'''243/242''', the '''rastma''' or the '''neutral third comma''', is a [[small comma|small]] [[11-limit]] (also [[2.3.11 subgroup|2.3.11-subgroup]]) [[comma]] with a value of roughly 7.1 [[cent]]s. It is significant in [[just intonation]] as the amount by which a stack of two [[11/9]] neutral thirds (that is an Alpharabian narrow fifth

[[121/81]]) fall short of [[3/2]] just perfect fifth as well as the amount by which a stack of two [[27/22]] neutral thirds (that is an Alpharabian wide fifth [[729/484]]) exceeds a 3/2 just perfect fifth, the amount by which a stack of two [[33/32]] quartertones falls short of an [[2187/2048|apotome (2187/2048)]] as well as the difference between 11/9 and 27/22, and the difference between [[45/44]] and [[55/54]].
