47-limit

Prime limit

← 43-limit 47-limit 53-limit →

The 47-limit consists of just intonation intervals whose ratios contain no prime factors higher than 47. It is the 15th prime limit and is thus a superset of the 43-limit and a subset of the 53-limit.

It is the highest prime limit that can be represented with Helmholtz-Ellis notation.
