Dividing the apotome (114 cents) into 3 equal parts gives 38 cents, and adding this to the pythagorean limma (90 cents) gives 128 cents, which is an approximation for [[14_13|14/13 ]](two-third tone,a favorite interval of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avicenna|Avicenna/Ibn Sina]]).

The division of the apotome derived from this combines the known basic division into apotome, Zarlinian semitone and apotome with an equal division into 3 parts, which yields the following mandal positions (cents):
