9 equal divisions of 7/6 (abbreviated 9ed7/6) is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 7/6 into 9 equal parts of about 29.7 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of (7/6)1/9, or the 9th root of 7/6.

Note that this tuning is very close to every other step of 81edo, although by patent val mapping the double octave (~4/1) is mapped inconsistently to 80\9ed7/6, thus requiring constitution of ~4/1 as 2♭ × 2♯ to yield the direct approximation 81\9ed7/6.
