246edo divides the 2/1 (octave) into 246 equal steps of 4.878 [[cents|cents]].

{{ED intro}}


The patent val offers excellent approximations (within half a cent) of primes 3, 11, 19, and 29, and quite good approximations (within one cent) of primes 5 and 23.
== Theory ==
246 = 6 × 41, and 246edo shares its [[perfect fifth|fifth]] with 41edo. It is only [[consistent]] to the [[5-odd-limit]], but the [[patent val]] offers excellent approximations (within half a cent) of [[prime harmonic]]s [[11/1|11]], [[19/1|19]], and [[29/1|29]], and quite good approximations (within one cent) of [[5/1|5]] and [[23/1|23]]. The same 11 and 19 are straight-up inherited by the monstrous [[2460edo]].

As an equal temperament, 246et [[tempering out|tempers out]] 15625/15552 ([[15625/15552|kleisma]]) in the 5-limit; [[5120/5103]] and 118098/117649 in the 7-limit; and [[540/539]], [[9801/9800]] in the 11-limit; [[325/324]], [[625/624]] in the 13-limit. It provides the [[optimal patent val]] for [[cata]], the 2.3.5.13 [[subgroup]] temperament tempering out 325/324 and 625/624. The 246d val [[support]]s [[tritikleismic]]. The 246ee val supports [[countercata]]. The 246f val supports [[supers]].

Since 246 factors into {{factorization|246}}, 246edo has subset edos {{EDOs| 2, 3, 6, 41, 82, and 123 }}.
 
A step of 246edo is exactly 10 [[mina]]s.
