48/47 is a medium 47-limit (specifically 2.3.47-subgroup) comma. It is the amount by which the octave-reduced 47th harmonic 47/32 falls short of the perfect fifth (3/2). It is significant in the Functional Just System and Helmholtz–Ellis notation as the formal comma to translate a Pythagorean interval to a nearby quadracesimoseptimal (47-limit) interval.
