Given any N [[EDO]], the size of an interval in //relative cents// is N/12 times its size in [[Cent|cents]]; or equivalently, 100 N times its logarithm base 2. Hence in [[7edo]], the octave is 700 relative cents, in [[53edo]], 53000 relative cents and so forth. | Given any N [[EDO]], the size of an interval in //relative cents// is N/12 times its size in [[Cent|cents]]; or equivalently, 100 N times its logarithm base 2.
