    The exact size in cents of any interval of Pure 12th Equal Temperament can be calculated by using the following formula:

    1200 × log23 × N/19

    N is the number of Semitones within an interval.

    For example, N = 7 for all Fifths because each Fifth contains 7 Semitones, N = 12 for all Octaves because each Octave contains 12 Semitones and N = 19 for all Twelfths because each Twelfth contains 19 Semitones:

    Semitone = 1200 × log23 × 1/19 = 100.10 cents.

    Fifth = 1200 × log23 × 7/19 = 700.72 cents.

    Octave = 1200 × log23 × 12/19 = 1201.23 cents.

    Twelfth = 1200 × log23 × 19/19 = 1901.96 cents.
