* The "perfect fourth," at 545.45 cents, does not sound like a perfect fourth at all, and passes more easily as the 11/8 superfourth than the simpler perfect fourth of 4/3.

11edo provides the same tuning on the [[k*N_subgroups|2*11 subgroup]] 2.9.15.7.11.17 as does 22edo, and on this subgroup it tempers out the same commas as 22. Also on this subgroup there is an approximation of the 8:9:11:14:15:16:17 chord and its subchords. Though the error is rather large, this does provide 11 with a variety of chords approximating JI chords.
11edo has acceptable approximations of harmonics 7 and 11, so the simplest accurate interpretation of it is as a 2.7.11 subgroup temperament. 11edo provides the same tuning on the [[k*N_subgroups|2*11 subgroup]] 2.9.15.7.11.17 as does 22edo, and on this subgroup it tempers out the same commas as 22.
