In the 5-limit, 231et [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[kleisma]], 15625/15552, and in the 7-limit [[1029/1024]], so that it [[support]]s the [[tritikleismic]] temperament, and in fact provides the [[optimal patent val]]. In the 11-limit it tempers out [[385/384]], [[441/440]] and [[4000/3993]], leading to 11-limit tritikleismic for which it also gives the optimal patent val.
231 years is the number of years in a 41 out of 231 leap week cycle, which corresponds to a {{nowrap|41 & 149}} temperament tempering out 132055/131072, 166375/165888, and 2460375/2458624. This type of solar calendar leap rule scale may actually be of more use to harmony, since a 41 note subset mimics [[41edo]], a rather useful edo harmonically, and it preserves the simple commas mentioned above.

231 years is the number of years in a 41 out of 231 leap week cycle, which corresponds to a 41 & 149 temperament tempering out 132055/131072, 166375/165888, and 2460375/2458624. This type of solar calendar leap rule scale may actually be of more use to harmony, since a 41 note subset mimics [[41edo]], a rather useful EDO harmonically, and it preserves the simple commas mentioned above - [http://x31eq.com/cgi-bin/rt.cgi?ets=41%26231&limit=11 see here.]
=== Subsets and supersets ===
231 = 3 × 7 × 11, with subset edos {{EDOs| 3, 7, 11, 21, 33, and 77 }}. Since it contains [[77edo]], it can be used for playing such a tuning of the [[Carlos Alpha]] scale.
