97.5cET is an equal-step tuning with steps of 97.5 cents (or each 13th step of 160edo). It approximates the 9th harmonic to within 2c, and may alternatively be tuned or conceived of as 39ed9. In contrast to 12edo, which is very similar in step size, it is not considered to approximate the octave (2/1) or perfect fifth (3/2), and has a workable, but rather (~10.5c) flat approximation of the perfect fourth (4/3). It excels however in the 4/3.5/3.7/3.11/3.13/3.9 subgroup, in which it tempers out 64/63, 100/99, 275/273, and 325/324, for example.
