<font style="font-size: 19.5px;">Division of a tenth (e. g. 7/3) into n equal parts</font>

Division of [[7/3]] into equal parts can be conceived of as to directly use this interval as an equivalence, or not. The question of [[equivalence]] has not even been posed yet. The utility of 7:3 or another tenth as a base though, is apparent by being the absolute widest range most generally used in popular songs (and even the range of a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dastg%C4%81h-e_M%C4%81hur dastgah]) as well as a fairly trivial point to split the difference between the octave and the tritave (which is why I have named the region of intervals between 6 and 7 degrees of 5edo the "Middletown valley", the proper Middletown temperament family being based on an enneatonic scale generated by a third or a fifth optionally with a period of a wolf fourth at most 560 cents wide). Incidentally [[Pseudo-traditional harmonic functions of enneatonic scale_degrees|enneatonic scales]], especially those equivalent at e. g. 7:3, can sensibly take tetrads as the fundamental complete sonorities of a pseudo-traditional functional harmony due to their seventh degree being as structrally important as it is. Many, though not all, of these scales have a perceptually important pseudo (false) octave, with various degrees of accuracy.

Incidentally, one way to treat 7/3 as an equivalence is the use of the 3:4:5:6:(7) chord as the fundamental complete sonority in a very similar way to the 4:5:6:(8) chord in meantone. Whereas in meantone it takes four 3/2 to get to 5/1, here it takes two 28/15 to get to 7/2 (tempering out the comma 225/224). So, doing this yields 15, 19, and 34 note MOS 2/1 apart. While the notes are rather farther apart, the scheme is uncannily similar to meantone. "Macrobichromatic" might be a practically perfect term for it if it hasn't been named yet.
