#686# apples

Explanation:

If the apple orchard has #8# different varieties of apples and in a week, #5488# apples were picked where there was an equal number of apples for each variety, then divide #5488# apples by #8# to determine the number of apples for each variety.

#5488color(white)(i)"apples"-:8#

#=color(green)(|bar(ul(color(white)(a/a)686color(white)(i)"apples"color(white)(a/a)|)))#

#:.#, #686# apples of each variety were picked that week.
