28742 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 28742edo or 28742ed2), also called 28742-tone equal temperament (28742tet) or 28742 equal temperament (28742et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 28742 equal parts of about 0.0418 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/28742, or the 28742nd root of 2.

28742edo is a strong 29-limit system, consistent to the 23-odd-limit, and except for 25/23 and its octave complement, it is consistent to the 29-odd-limit. It also has potential as a no-31 higher-limit system. It is the next zeta peak edo (and zeta peak integer edo) after 16808edo.

As an equal temperament, it tempers out 123201/123200 in the 13-limit; 194481/194480 and 336141/336140 in the 17-limit; 89376/89375, 104976/104975 and 165376/165375 in the 19-limit; and 75141/75140 among others in the 23-limit.
