It's 5785 K!
It can be calculated by Wien's displacement law which presents the relationship between the wavelength of the peak of the emission of a black body and its temperature :
Lambda_max * T = b
b is called Wien's displacement constant and equals 2.897 7685(51) Ã 10–3 m K
By measuring the peak emission of the sun which is at a wavelength of 502 nm (green light), we can deduce its surface temperature above.

i just dont know but i think....
The surface temperature of the Sun is about 6,000 Kelvins, nearly 10,500 degrees Fahrenheit.
(For comparison, the average temperature in Los Angeles is about 72 degrees Fahrenheit, about 295 Kelvins.)
hope this will help!
