Homework Statement

We’re tuning a guitar using harmonics, and we produce, on our properly tuned E-string, a frequency of 329.6 Hz when we pluck the first harmonic. The second harmonic, on the A-string, is noticeably higher, producing a beat frequency of 1.5 Hz. What is the frequency produced by the harmonic on the A- string?

Is this homework? And what exactly are you trying to figure out? The correct frequency of an A?

You have two notes producing a beat. You know one frequency and the beat frequency. You have to find the other frequency.
