According to this article:

Yet in fact, Japanese guns and mines still inflicted considerable damage, despite the former struggling to penetrate a Sherman’s frontal armor. According to Zaloga, each Marine tank deployed to Okinawa was knocked out four times on average during the 82-day battle. And of those, a total of 51 Marine and 102 Army M4s were destroyed.
