Answer:

29.3785310734 is the exact answer but you can estimate

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s say the initial depth was 100%.

A 77% decrease would mean that 77% of the 100% was added to the hole so then it final result would be 177% of the initial hole which is also 52 as given. 177% is the same as 1.77 so we would divide 52 by 1.77 to get that x = 29.3785310734. Still confusing? Just look here:
