Trigonometric levelling was carried out from two stations P and Q to find the reduced level (R. L.) of the top of hillock, as shown in the table. The distance between Stations P and Q is 55 m. Assume Stations P and Q, and the hillock are in the same vertical plane. The R. L. of the top of the hillock (in m) is ____________ (round off to three decimal places).

$$ \begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text { Station } & \begin{array}{c} \text { Vertical } \\ \text { angle of } \\ \text { the top of } \\ \text { hillock } \end{array} & \begin{array}{c} \text { Staff } \\ \text { reading on } \\ \text { benchmark } \end{array} & \begin{array}{c} \text { R.L. of } \\ \text { bench } \\ \text { mark } \end{array} \\ \hline \mathrm{P} & 18^{\circ} 45^{\prime} & 2.340 \mathrm{~m} & \begin{array}{c} 100.000 \\ \mathrm{~m} \end{array} \\ \hline \mathrm{Q} & 12^{\circ} 45^{\prime} & 1.660 \mathrm{~m} & \\ \hline \end{array} $$
