736/729, the 23-limit Tenney/Cage comma, is a 2.3.23 subgroup comma. It is the amount by which 23/16 (the 23rd harmonic) exceeds the Pythagorean augemented fourth (729/512). It is significant in Helmholtz-Ellis notation as the formal comma to translate a Pythagorean interval to a nearby 23-limit (vicesimotertial) interval.
