'''16EDF''' is the [[EDF|equal division of the just perfect fifth]] into 16 parts of 43.8722 [[cent|cents]] each, corresponding to 27.3522 [[edo]] (similar to every third step of [[82edo]]). 16edf contains good approximations of the 7th and 13th harmonics.

It serves as a good approximation to [[halftone]] temperament, containing the ~[[7/5]] generator at 13 steps.
== Theory ==
16edf corresponds to 27.3522…[[edo]]. It is similar to every third step of [[82edo]] but not quite similar to [[27edo]]; the octave is compressed by 15.45{{c}}, a small but significant deviation. It contains good approximations of the [[7/1|7th]] and [[13/1|13th]] [[harmonic]]s.

=== Subsets and supersets ===
Since 16 factors into primes as 2<sup>4</sup>, 16edf contains subset edfs {{EDs|equave=f| 2, 4, and 8 }}.

16 equal divisions of the perfect fifth (abbreviated 16edf or 16ed3/2) is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 3/2 into 16 equal parts of about 43.9 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of (3/2)1/16, or the 16th root of 3/2.

Theory

16edf corresponds to 27.3522…edo. It is similar to every third step of 82edo but not quite similar to 27edo; the octave is compressed by 15.45 ¢, a small but significant deviation. It contains good approximations of the 7th and 13th harmonics.

It serves as a good approximation to halftone temperament, containing the ~7/5 generator at 13 steps.
