The revision contents are below, presented both in the original Wikispaces Wikitext format, and in HTML exactly as Wikispaces rendered it.
Original Wikitext content:
The //47 equal division// divides the octave into 47 equal parts of 25.512 cents each. It has a fifth which is 12.593 cents flat, unless you use the alternative fifth which is 12.939 cents sharp. It has therefore not aroused much interest, but its best approximation to 9/8 is actually quite good, a third of a cent sharp. It does a good job of approximating the 2.9.5.7.33.13.17.57.69 subgroup of the [[23-limit]], on which it tempers out the same commas as [[94edo]]. It provides a good tuning for [[Chromatic pairs|baldy]] and [[Chromatic pairs|silver]] temperaments and relatives.
