111edo is [[consistent]] through to the [[21-odd-limit]], and is the smallest edo uniquely consistent through the [[15-odd-limit]], marking it as an important higher limit tuning.  
111edo is [[consistent]] through to the [[21-odd-limit]], and is the smallest edo uniquely consistent through the [[15-odd-limit]], marking it as an important higher limit tuning. With harmonics 3 through 19 all tuned sharp, 111edo is somewhat related to [[37edo]], with which it shares the mappings for 5, 7, 11, and 13.  


It is also significant for lower limits, especially in terms of what it tempers out; for example, it tempers out [[176/175]] and gives an excellent [[optimal patent val]] for the corresponding [[11-limit]] rank-4 temperament.  
It is also significant for lower limits, especially in terms of what it tempers out in its [[patent val]]; for example, it tempers out [[176/175]] and gives an excellent [[optimal patent val]] for the corresponding [[11-limit]] [[rank-4 temperament]].  


In fact in the [[7-limit]] it tempers out [[1728/1715]], [[3136/3125]] and [[5120/5103]], and in the 11-limit, 176/175, [[540/539]], 1331/1323, 1375/1372, and notably the [[quartisma]].

It is a particularly good tuning for the 11- or 13-versions of [[semisept]], the 31&111 temperament, and [[buzzard]], the 58&111 temperament. The trio piece in [[#Music]] section is in [[Orwellismic family #Guanyin|guanyin temperament]], the [[planar temperament]] [[tempering out]] 176/175 and 540/539, for which 111 also provides the optimal patent val.

The prime factorization is 111 = 3 × 37.
