20-tone equal temperament, or 20edo, divides the octave into exactly 20 equal steps of 60 [[cent]]s each. It contains smaller [[EDO|edo]]s [[2edo|2]], [[4edo|4]], [[5edo|5]], and [[10edo|10]] and is part of the 5n Family of equal divisions of the octave. 20 edo fairly approximates the harmonics 7 (from [[5edo]]), 11, 13 & 15 (from [[10edo]]), 19 & 27 (from [[4edo]]), 29 and 31; as well as the other harmonics more loosely (though to some people, still functionally) approximated. Thus, 20-EDO does a reasonably convincing approximation of harmonics 4:7:11:13:15. | 20-tone equal temperament, or 20edo, divides the octave into exactly 20 equal steps of 60 [[cent]]s each.
