Several lines of level are run over different routes from BM-A to establish the elevation of BM-B. The lengths of these routes and the observed elevations of BM-B through each route were recorded as follows: Route 1, 379.855 m; Route 2, 379.904 m; Route 3, 379.927 m; Route 4, 379.775 m; and Route 5, 379.910 m. Find the most probable value of the elevation of BM-B in meters.
