Distribution of the dereddened DM of the LMC calculated by using the PWZ relations listed in Table 2 (light blue histograms). The left panels show the results obtained with the PhotPar method for the F (top) and F+1O (bottom) mode DCEPs, respectively. Right panels: same results, but for the ABL method. The red band displays the uncertainty region around the geometric distance of the LMC by Pietrzyński et al. (2019, dashed line).
