112edo has two great [[3/2|perfect fifth]]s, the lower of which approximates [[quarter-comma meantone]] (just a tad lower), and the upper of | 112edo has two great [[3/2|perfect fifth]]s, the lower of which approximates [[quarter-comma meantone]] (just a tad lower), and the upper of which—the [[patent fifth]]—is identical to the perfect fifth of [[56edo]], a great inverse gentle fifth where +5 fifths gives a near-just [[28/27]] while −8 fifths gives a near-just [[39/32]] (identical to 2 degrees of [[7edo]]) and +9 fifths gives a close approximation to [[21/17]]. | ||
One can form a 17-tone circle by taking 15 large fifths and 2 small fifths, as above, which gives some nice interval shadings a wee bit different from [[17edo]], but sharing a similar structure. | One can form a 17-tone circle by taking 15 large fifths and 2 small fifths, as above, which gives some nice interval shadings a wee bit different from [[17edo]], but sharing a similar structure. | ||
