Answer: To find the best estimate of the number of golf balls Nathan hit further than 350 yards, we can start by calculating the actual number of golf balls he hit further than 350 yards:

Number of golf balls Nathan hit further than 350 yards = 24.3% of 115

= (24.3/100) x 115

= 27.945

Since we are asked for the best estimate, we can round this number to the nearest whole number, which is 28. Therefore, the best estimate of the number of golf balls Nathan hit further than 350 yards is 28.
