The '''Pythagorean''' or '''ditonic comma''' (about 23.460[[Cent|¢]]) is the interval 531441/524288 or {{Monzo| -19 12 }} in [[monzo]] notation. It could also be called the 12-comma as it is the amount by which twelve fifths exceed seven octaves, or in other words (3/2)<sup>12</sup>/2<sup>7</sup> and it also can be written as the ratio between the apotome and the Pythagorean minor second, ([[2187/2048]])/([[256/243]]). For EDOs up to 300, it is tempered out if and only if the EDO is a multiple of 12, and hence for instance by [[12edo]], [[24edo]], [[72edo]] and [[84edo]]. | The '''Pythagorean''' or '''ditonic comma''' (about 23.460[[Cent|¢]]) is the interval 531441/524288 or {{Monzo| -19 12 }} in [[monzo]] notation.
