Original Wikitext content:

**105edo** is the [[equal division of the octave]] into 105 equal parts of 11.429 [[cent]]s each. It is most notable as a tuning of meantone and in particular higher limit extensions of meantone, [[tempering out]] [[81_80|81/80]] in the [[5-limit]]; 81/80, [[126_125|126/125]] and hence 225/224 in the [[7-limit]]; 99/98, 176/175 and 441/440 in the [[11-limit]]; and if we want to push that far, 144/143 in the [[13-limit]]. This is the sharper fifth mapping (aka "huygens") of 11-limit meantone.

105edo gives the [[optimal patent val]] for 11-limit meantone (ie huygens rather than meanpop) and provides a good tuning in the 13-limit, though [[74edo]] is in that case the optimal patent val. 105 is highly composite, being the product 3*5*7 of the three smallest odd primes, with other divisors being 15, 21 and 35. As the common multiple of these three primes closest to 100, 105 is a perfect substitute for it when a "[[cent]]" is desired to include them all.
