It is very simple to determine the age of sun (really an age of fusion reaction start), you don't even have to know some complex math to do it.
It is like determining a time when you started a fire in fireplace looking over amounts of charcoal and wood you currently have.
There is a nuclear fusion reaction going on in the star. Lighter elements, starting from simpliest one - hydrogen, assembles into heavier elements. So it will be less hydrogen and more other elements as time pass. Current amount of elements could be determined by observing Sun spectrum. Initial composition could be estimated from interstellar gas composition that did not experience fusion reaction. That's all, no magic or anything murky behind that Sun age estimation. You don't have to believe in it, you could do all the observations and math by yourself.
I don't even try to convince anybody, I show others obvious and very simple difference between believing and knowing.
Today, for very clear reasons science posed as something too complex to understand that have to be just believed from the words of those who pose themselves as scientists for public. But science is complete opposite of that. And it is not complex at all. That is why they try to trash the science hard.

bro dont even try to explain... they'll come back saying "but the burden of proof is on the mathematics" .
you could give them all the proofs in the uni/multiverse and it will NEVER be enough...
its like reparations to black people.. you could give it to them.. and it still wont be enough...
