Answer: (A)

Verified step by step guidance

1. Recall the formula to convert Celsius temperature to Fahrenheit: \(F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32\).
2. Identify the given Celsius temperature, which is 170 °C in this problem.
3. Substitute the Celsius value into the formula: \(F = \frac{9}{5} \times 170 + 32\).
4. Perform the multiplication first: calculate \(\frac{9}{5} \times 170\).
5. Add 32 to the result from the multiplication to find the equivalent Fahrenheit temperature.
