The threedie, 2197/2187, is a 3.13-subgroup analog of the 2.5-subgroup diesis. Measuring about 7.9 ¢, it is a small comma. Analogous to tempering out the diesis, which divides the octave into three sharp 5/4's, tempering out the threedie divides the tritave into three slightly flat 13/9's, since (13/9)3/3 = 2197/2187. Furthermore, tempering out the threedie divides 9/8 into three instances of 27/26. 596edo provides the optimal patent val for the corresponding rank-5 temperament.

It factors into simpler commas in the 2.3.5.13 subgroup as (325/324)(676/675), or can be expressed in the 2.3.7.13 subgroup as (169/168)/(729/728), i.e. S13/S27.
