Using the solution of the \(n\)-dimensional Minkowski problem due to \textit{S.-Y. Cheng} and \textit{S. T. Yau} [Commun. Pure Appl. Math. 29, 495-516 (1976; Zbl 0363.53030)], the author obtains an analog of this result in equiaffine differential geometry. The essential idea is to express equiaffine invariants in terms of Euclidean invariants, as in \textit{W. Blaschke}, Vorlesungen über Differentialgeometrie. II. Affine Differentialgeometrie (Springer, Berlin 1923), \S 64.
