Submajor and supraminor intervals are found in flatly tuned [[5L 2s|diatonic scales]], such as where the fifth is tuned to around 691 cents. For a given [[neutral]] interval ''k'' in cents, submajor ranges from roughly ''k''+10 to ''k''+24 cents, and supraminor ranges from roughly ''k''-24 to ''k''-10 cents. For example, submajor seconds are found between about 157 to 171 cents, containing the lower range of the "[[equable heptatonic]]" region defined by [[Margo Schulter]]. | Submajor and supraminor intervals are found in flatly tuned [[5L 2s|diatonic scales]], such as where the fifth is tuned to around 691 cents.
