Degrees temperament has a period of 1/20 octave and tempers out the hemimage (10976/10935) and the dimcomp (390625/388962). In this temperament, one period equals ~28/27, two equals ~15/14, three equals ~10/9, five equals ~25/21, six equals ~16/13, seven equals ~14/11, nine equals ~15/11, and ten equals ~99/70. | Degrees temperament has a period of 1/20 octave and tempers out the hemimage (10976/10935) and the dimcomp (390625/388962).

An obvious extension to the 23-limit exists by equating 4\20 = 1\5 with [[23/20]], 6\20 = 3\10 with [[69/56]], 7\20 with [[23/18]], etc. By observing that 1\20 works as [[30/29]]~[[29/28]]~[[28/27]] with 29/28 being especially accurate, and by equating [[29/22]] with 2\5 = 240{{cent}} we get a uniquely elegant extension to the 29-limit which tempers out ([[33/25]])/([[29/22]]) = [[726/725]], [[784/783|S28 = 784/783]] and [[841/840|S29 = 841/840]]. An edo as large as [[220edo|220]] supports it by patent val, though it does not appear in the optimal ET sequence, and [[80edo]] and [[140edo]] are both much more recommendable tunings. | An obvious extension to the 23-limit exists by equating 4\20 = 1\5 with [[23/20]], 6\20 = 3\10 with [[69/56]], 7\20 with [[23/18]], etc. By observing that 1\20 works as [[30/29]]~[[29/28]]~[[28/27]], with 29/28 being especially accurate, and by equating [[29/22]] with 2\5 = 240{{cent}}, we get a uniquely elegant extension to the 29-limit which tempers out ([[33/25]])/([[29/22]]) = [[726/725]], [[784/783|S28 = 784/783]] and [[841/840|S29 = 841/840]].

By equating 37/28 with 2\5 and more accurately 85/74 with 1\5 and 44/37 with 1\4 (among many other equivalences) we get an extension to prime 37 agreeing with many (semi)convergents. By equating 60/41~41/28 with 11\20 or equivalently 56/41~41/30 with 9\20 and by equating 44/41 with 1\10 (among many other equivalences) there is a very efficient extension to prime 41. | By equating 37/28 with 2\5 and more accurately 85/74 with 1\5 and 44/37 with 1\4 (among many other equivalences) we get an extension to prime 37 agreeing with many (semi)convergents.
