The '''septendecima''' ([[monzo]]: {{monzo| -52 -17 34 }}) is a [[5-limit]] [[unnoticeable comma]]. It represents the difference between a stack of seventeen [[25/24]] intervals and one octave, and tempering it out means that [[25/24 equal-step tuning]] is equated with [[17edo]]. Therefore, a temperament must be divisible by 17 in order to temper out this comma, any edo such as [[311edo]], which isn't a multiple of 17 cannot be tempering out the 25/24 kleisma.
