25/16

25/16, the classic(al) augmented fifth or diptolemaic augmented fifth is the interval obtained by stacking two 5/4 major thirds, however, it gains additional isoharmonic identity from its position between 11/8 and 7/4, so it can frequently be used in conjunction with those, even in chords. It is 100/99 sharp of 99/64, and tempering out 100/99 makes 1-5/4-25/16 into the ptolemismic augmented triad.
