When a musical instrument is tuned using a just intonation tuning system, the size of the main intervals can be expressed by small-integer ratios, such as 1:1 , 2:1 , 3:2 (perfect fifth), 4:3 (perfect fourth), 5:4 (major third), 6:5 (minor third). Intervals with small-integer ratios are often called just intervals, or pure intervals
Irregular bars are a change in time signature normally for only one bar. Such a bar is most often a bar of 3 4, 5 4 or 2 4 in a 4 4 composition, or a bar of 4 4 in a 3 4 composition, or a bar of 5 8 in a 6 8 composition. If a song is entirely in 4 4 a change to 3 4 will make the song feel like it has skipped a beat, the opposite is true for 5
1 ⁄ 3-comma meantone produces the "just" minor third (6:5, 316 cents, a syntonic comma higher than the Pythagorean one of 294 cents). In both these meantone temperaments, the enharmony, here the difference between A ♭ and G ♯ , is much larger than in Pythagorean, and with the flat degree higher than the sharp one.
For cathode ray tubes (CRTs) 4:3 was most common even in resolutions where this meant the pixels would not be square (e.g. 320×200 or 1280×1024 on a 4:3 display). Between 2003 and 2006, monitors with 16:10 aspect ratio became commonly available, first in laptops and later also in standalone computer monitors.
The value of 5 1 ⁄ 8 ·35 1 ⁄ 3 is very close to 4, which is why a 7-limit interval 6144:6125 (which is the difference between the 5-limit diesis 128:125 and the septimal diesis 49:48), equal to 5.362 cents, appears very close to the quarter-comma ( 81 / 80 ) 1 ⁄ 4 of 5.377 cents.

Cuisenaire rods: 5 (yellow) cannot be evenly divided in 2 (red) by any 2 rods of the same color/length, while 6 (dark green) can be evenly divided in 2 by 3 (lime green). In mathematics, parity is the property of an integer of whether it is even or odd. An integer is even if it is divisible by 2, and odd if it is not. [1]
The higher-seeded team would host the odd-numbered games (games 1, 3, 5 and 7), while the lower-seeded team hosts the even-numbered games (games 2, 4, 6 and 8). There would be no overtime except for the deciding game, because a tie in the last game of the series would not declare a series winner.
