[[Octave stretching]] or [[octave shrinking]] can be used to equally share the error between an edo's best and worst fifths (i.e. bring them both to exactly 50% [[relative error]]).
[[Octave stretching]] or [[octave shrinking]] can be used to equally share the error between an edo's best and second-best fifths (i.e. bring them both to exactly 50% [[relative error]]).


Here is the amount of error the sharp and flat fifth will both exhibit in some possible dual-fifth edos after they have been stretched/compressed in this way:

{{Todo|correct maths|inline=1|text=This list gives half the unstretched step size for each edo. The correct values should be half of the step size after stretching, where the 9/4 reached by stacking both fifths is just.}}
