Notes. When two errors are quoted the first is the statistical and the second the systematic error bar. Madore & Freedman (2020) take −6.20 ± 0.01 ± 0.04 as the average of SMC and LMC, Freedman & Madore (2020) quote −6.20 ± 0.037 mag. For the final models from this work the results from the Monte Carlo simulations are given.
