Also tempered out is 27/25, if we temper this out in preference to 16/15 we obtain [[Bug family|bug temperament]], which equates 10/9 with 6/5: it is a little more perverse even than father. Because these intervals are so large, this sort of analysis is less significant with 5 than it becomes with larger and more accurate divisions, but it still plays a role. For example, I-IV-V-I is the same as I-III-V-I and involves triads with common intervals because of fourth-thirds equivalence. | Also tempered out is 27/25, if we temper this out in preference to 16/15 we obtain [[Bug family|bug temperament]], which equates 10/9 with 6/5: it is a little more perverse even than father.

Despite its lack of accuracy, 5edo is the second [[The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning #Zeta edo lists|zeta integral edo]], after 2edo. It also is the smallest equal division representing the [[9-odd-limit|9-limit]] [[consistent|consistently]], giving a distinct value modulo five to 2, 3, 5, 7 and 9.

It also is the smallest equal division representing the [[9-odd-limit|9-limit]] [[consistent|consistently]], giving a distinct value modulo five to 2, 3, 5, 7 and 9. Hence in a way similar to how [[4edo]] can be used, and which is discussed in that article, it can be used to represent [[7-limit]] intervals in terms of their position in a pentad, by giving a triple of integers representing a pentad in the [[The_Seven_Limit_Symmetrical_Lattices|lattice]] of tetrads/pentads together with the number of scale steps in 5edo. However, while 2edo represents the [[3-limit]] consistently, 3edo the [[5-limit]], 4edo the [[7-limit]] and 5edo the 9-limit, to represent the [[11-limit]] consistently with a [[patent val]] requires going all the way to [[22edo|22edo]]. Nevertheless, because the comma tempered out for this edo's circle of fifths is [[256/243]], and since this interval is smaller than half a step, 5edo is the second EDO to demonstrate 3-to-2 [[telicity]] — that is, when not counting the comparatively trivial [[1edo]]. | ||
