44/35, the valinorsmic major third, is an 11-limit interval that is close to a 12edo major third, and which differs from 5/4 by 176/175, the valinorsma. It is the product of 11/10 and 8/7, intervals that are commonly used as stand-ins for the cube roots of 4/3 and 3/2 respectively, so appears as 1/3 of an octave in systems that carve both 4/3 and 3/2 in thirds.
