Calculation of a note's frequency in the 18th-19th century

Suppose you are trying to reproduce an A major scale from the early 18th or 19th century, when A4 was perhaps tuned to 429.3Hz. What is the correct frequency (in Hz) for the next C# up (assuming we want an equal tempered scale)?

I need a little help with figuring what the sequence is in this question and how to figure out how to calculate the whole whole half whole set up.
