851 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 851edo or 851ed2), also called 851-tone equal temperament (851tet) or 851 equal temperament (851et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 851 equal parts of about 1.41 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/851, or the 851st root of 2.

851edo is consistent to the 15-odd-limit or the no-17 no-23 25-odd-limit. As an equal temperament, it tempers out the luna comma in the 5-limit; 2401/2400 (breedsma) and 33554432/33480783 (garischisma) in the 7-limit; 3025/3024 and 19712/19683 in the 11-limit; and 2080/2079, 4096/4095, and 4225/4224 in the 13-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for 13-limit newt, the 270 & 581 microtemperament, as well as neonewt, its no-17 19-limit extension.

Since 851 factors into 23 × 37, 851edo contains 23edo and 37edo as its subsets. 1702edo, which doubles it, provides a strong correction to the 17th and 23rd harmonics, making it notably good as a high-limit no-threes system.
