The Sun is estimated to have about 5.00 billion years left in it’s “normal” (main sequence) lifetime. Assume the average “burn” rate that you computed in question #1, what % of the Sun’s current mass will have been converted at the end of it’s estimated 5.00 billion years of additional life? Actually, the Sun will lose more mass due to the solar wind, CMEs, the neutrio flux etc.
