All the columns N/1 (eg 2/1, 3/1) are already correct. For the other columns, some cells are correct and some not. What you need to do is subtract the error (in cents (¢)) of the two harmonics involved, but don't disregard their direction. For example if harmonic 5 has +10¢ error and harmonic 3 has -9¢ error, then the total error of interval 5/3 is 19¢ (opposite errors add). If harmonic 5 has +10¢ error and harmonic 3 has +9¢ error, then the total error of interval 5/3 is 1¢ (same-direction errors subtract).</pre> | All the columns N/1 (eg 2/1, 3/1) are already correct.
