A rectangular plot is of length m and width m. A conical pit of diameter m and depth m with its flat surface upward and vertex downward is dug at one corner of the plot. The soil dug out is spread uniformly over the remaining area of the plot. The best approximation value of the increment in the level of the remaining plot is (take )
