Original Wikitext content:
**Octave-reducing** a fraction //r// means to make it fit into the range from 1 (the [[unisone]]) to (excluding) 2 (the [[octave]]): <span style="font-family: monospace; font-size:150%">1 <= r < 2</span> If //r// does not satisfy this inequality, it has to be * multiplied by 2 while less than 1 or * divided by 2 while greater than or equal to 2 == Examples == * 3/4 is less than 1, so multiply by 2 to get [[3_2|3/2]] * 7/2 is greater than 2, so divide by 2 to get [[7_4|7/4]] * 4/2 is greater than 2, so divide by 2 to get 2, which is equal to 2, so divide by 2 to get 1
