300edo's step size is called a '''savart''' when used as an [[interval size unit]].

300edo is the largest-number edo which [[tempers out]] the [[Pythagorean comma]], 531441/524288, in the [[patent val]].

It is in[[consistent]] to the [[5-odd-limit]] and higher, with three mappings possible for the 5-limit: {{val| 300 475 697 }} (patent val), {{val| 300 '''476''' 697 }} (300b), and {{val| 300 475 '''696''' }} (300c).

Since 300 factors into {{factorization|300}}, 300edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50, 60, 75, 100, and 150 }}. [[600edo]], which doubles it, gives a good correction to its approximation of the 5-limit.
