In [[5-limit]] [[ | In [[5-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''8/5''' is a '''minor sixth''', measuring about 813.7¢. It is the 5th [[subharmonic]], and thus the inversion of [[5/4]], the classic major third. It appears in chords where the 1/1 is higher than the 5/4, such as 5:6:8 (a first-inversion major triad). It is a large half step of [[16/15]] (about 111.7¢) away from [[3/2]], and an [[81/80]] (about 21.5¢) away from the Pythagorean ([[3-limit]]) minor sixth of [[128/81]] (about 792.2¢). | ||
