Nobody knows, because nobody living at the same time ever mentioned her age at a given date.

Some people have said she was "older" than Mohammed. This is very unlikely, because Mohammed was born in 570 and Sawda died in 674. So even if she was only one day older, she would have lived to be 104 years old! This is possible, but we would need better evidence to believe it for certain.

It is true, however, that Mohammed considered divorcing her because she was "old". This probably means that she was older than his other wives. If she was ten years younger than Mohammed, and lived to be 94, she was still 13 years older than the next-oldest wife.

In the same way as anyone else - by declaring in front of witnesses: "There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is his messenger."

However, it occurred in the first six years of Islam, making her a very early convert.
