25/24 is very accurately approximated by [[17edo]]'s 1\17 (70.588{{cent}}). In fact, the interval that results from stacking seventeen 25/24 chromatic semitones reduced by an octave is the [[septendecima]], only 1.428{{cent}} in size. | 25/24 is very accurately approximated by [[17edo]]'s 1\17 (70.588{{cent}}).

If 25/24 is treated as a comma to be tempered out, it may be called the '''dicot comma'''. Doing so leads to the [[dicot]] temperament, where the distinction between 5-limit major and minor thirds are removed and there is only a single neutral interval functioning as both, as in [[7edo]], [[10edo]], and [[17edo]]. See [[dicot family]] for the rank-2 family where it is tempered out. | If 25/24 is treated as a comma to be tempered out, it may be called the '''dicot comma'''.
