You can use Wien's displacement law to find out the temperature.
λmax=b/T
Rearrange it to get T= b/λmax
λmax is the peak wavelength, in this case 500x10^-9m, and b is the Wien constant which is approximately 2.897x10^-3mK.
Put in the values into the formula and it will give you the answer in K.
Hope this helps!
