Answer:

128 lawn mowers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The overhead cost = $ 34,816,

The cost for one lawn mower = $ 388,

Let x be the number of lawn mowers manufactured,

So, the total cost of x lawn mowers = 34816 + 388x,

Now, if the average cost of x mowers = $ 660,

So, the total cost = 660x

[tex]\implies 660x = 34816 + 388x[/tex]

[tex]660x - 388x = 34816[/tex]

[tex]272x= 34816[/tex]

[tex]\implies x = \frac{34816}{272}=128[/tex]

Hence, 128 lawn mowers were manufactured.
