The '''161 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''161edo'''), or the '''161(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''161tet''', '''161et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, divides the [[octave]] into 161 [[equal]] parts of about 7.45 [[cent]]s each.

161edo tempers out the [[Würschmidt comma]], 393216/390625, in the 5-limit; [[3136/3125]], [[6144/6125]] and [[2401/2400]] in the 7-limit; [[243/242]], [[441/440]], [[540/539]] and 5632/5625 in the 11-limit; and [[1188/1183]], [[351/350]], [[847/845]], [[1575/1573]], [[1001/1000]] and [[1716/1715]] in the 13-limit. It serves as the [[optimal patent val]] for the [[mintone]] temperament in the 5-, 7-, 11- and 13-limits.

* 161et has a lower [[TE error|absolute error]] than any previous equal temperaments in the 19-limit, even though it is inconsistent in the corresponding odd limit. The same subgroup is only better tuned by [[183edo|183et]].
