25EDO divides the [[octave]] in 25 equal steps of exact size 48 [[cent]]s each. It is a good way to tune the [[Blackwood temperament]], which takes the very sharp fifths of [[5EDO]] as a given, tempers out 28/27 and 49/48, and attempts to optimize the tunings for 5 ([[5_4|5/4]]) and 7 ([[7_4|7/4]]). It also tunes sixix temperament with a sharp fifth. It supplies the optimal patent val for the 11-limit 6&amp;25 temperament tempering out 49/48, 77/75 and 605/576, and the 13-limit extension also tempering out 66/65.

25EDO has fifths 18 cents sharp, but its major thirds are excellent and its 7/4 is acceptable. Moreover, in full 7-limit icluding the 3, it is not [[consistent]]. It therefore makes sense to use it as a 2.5.7 [[Just intonation subgroups|subgroup]] tuning. Looking just at 2, 5, and 7, it equates five [[8_7|8/7]]s with the octave, and so tempers out (8/7)^5 / 2 = 16807/16384. It also equates a [[128_125|128/125]] [[diesis]] and two [[septimal tritones]] of [[7_5|7/5]] with the octave, and hence tempers out 3136/3125. If we want to temper out both of these and also have decent fifths, the obvious solution is [[50EDO]]. An alternative fifth, 14\25, which is 672 cents, provides an alternative very flat fifth which can be used for [[mavila]] temperament.

If 5/4 and 7/4 aren't good enough, it also does 17/16 and 19/16, just like 12EDO. In fact, on the [[k*N subgroups|2*25 subgroup]] 2.9.5.7.33.39.17.19 it provides the same tuning and tempers out the same commas as 50et, which makes for a wide range of harmony.
