If octaves are kept pure, 27edo divides the [[octave]] in 27 equal parts each exactly 44.444... [[cents]] in size. However, 27 is a prime candidate for [[octave shrinking]], and a step size of 44.3 to 44.35 cents would be reasonable. The reason for this is that 27edo tunes the [[5_4|third]], [[3_2|fifth]] and [[7_4|7/4]] sharply.
If octaves are kept pure, 27edo divides the [[octave]] in 27 equal parts each exactly 44.444... [[cent]]s in size. However, 27 is a prime candidate for [[octave shrinking]], and a step size of 44.3 to 44.35 cents would be reasonable. The reason for this is that 27edo tunes the [[5_4|third]], [[3_2|fifth]] and [[7_4|7/4]] sharply.


Assuming however pure octaves, 27 has a fifth sharp by slightly more than nine cents and a 7/4 sharp by slightly less, and the same 400 cent major third as [[12edo]], sharp 13 2/3 cents. The result is that [[6_5|6/5]], [[7_5|7/5]] and especially [[7_6|7/6]] are all tuned more accurately than this.

If octaves are kept pure, 27edo divides the &lt;a class="wiki_link" href="/octave"&gt;octave&lt;/a&gt; in 27 equal parts each exactly 44.444... &lt;a class="wiki_link" href="/cents"&gt;cents&lt;/a&gt; in size.
