The interval of '''225/224''', the '''septimal kleisma''' or '''marvel comma''' is a [[7-limit]] [[superparticular]] ratio. It pops up as the difference between pairs of 7-limit ratios, for example as ([[15/14]])/([[16/15]]) or ([[45/32]])/([[7/5]]). Another useful relation is as the difference between the [[25/24]], the classical chromatic semitone, and [[28/27]], the septimal third-tone.

It is also the difference between [[81/80]] and [[126/125]] and is tempered out alongside these two commas in [[septimal meantone]]. In the 11-limit, it factors neatly into ([[385/384]])([[540/539]]).  
Another useful relation is as the difference between the [[25/24]], the classical chromatic semitone, and [[28/27]], the septimal third-tone. Hence, it is also the difference between [[32/25]] and [[9/7]], and between [[75/64]] and [[7/6]].
