'''[[EDF|Division of the just perfect fifth]] into 21 equal parts''' (21EDF) is related to [[36edo|36 edo]], but with the 3/2 rather than the 2/1 being just. The octave is about 3.3514 cents stretched and the step size is about 33.4264 cents. Unlike 36edo, it is only consistent up to the [[3-odd-limit|4-integer-limit]], with discrepancy for the 5th harmonic.

21EDF is related to [[36edo]], but with the 3/2 rather than the 2/1 being just, which stretches the octave by about 3.3514 cents. Unlike 36edo, it is only consistent up to the 4-[[integer-limit]], with discrepancy for the 5th harmonic.

== Theory ==
21edf acts as a stretched version of 36edo, though under most circumstances the stretch is more than ideal. If used as a fifth-based system, the chord 6:7:8(:9) may act as the fundamental chord of the system. The most important comma tempered out by this system is [[1029/1024]], and the related temperament is a fifth-based version of [[slendric]] with a 1/3-fifth period representing [[8/7]] and a generator of about a sixth-tone. One generator up or down from this period gives [[7/6]] and [[9/8]] respectively. Other edfs supporting this temperament include [[24edf]] and [[45edf]].
