To finalize the direction of a survey, four surveyors set up a theodolite at a station P and performed all the temporary adjustments. From the station P, each of the surveyors observed the bearing to a tower located at station Q with the same instrument without shifting it. The bearings observed by the surveyors are 30° 30' 00", 30° 29' 40", 30° 30' 20" and 30° 31' 20". Assuming that each measurement is taken with equal precision, the most probable value of the bearing is

A

30° 29' 40"

B

30° 30' 20"

C

30° 30' 00"

D

30° 31' 20"
