this is one (bot not the only one) approach

"something between" probably.
Concerning modulus, the best value is such that your overall/macroscopic modulus match the experiment/expectation.
Concerning strength, it is a bit more tricky. But similarly, some macroscopic response (strength, failure mode etc.) should match experiment/expectation.
