By its gravitational effects. The law of gravitation states that F = G (m1) (m2) / r2; the constant "G" can be measured in Earth laboratories with a delicate instrument that measures the force between two objects; from there, the mass of Earth can be calculated, and from the mass of Earth, other objects in the Solar System (once the distances are also known).

The Suns mass is 1.9891 × 1030 kg or about 333,000 times that of Earth. The Sun contains about 99% of the total mass of the Solar System.

A trivial fraction. Of the total mass in the Solar System, the Sun is about 99.5% of the total, and most of the rest is Jupiter. Saturn is approximately 0.02% of the Sun's mass.
Eta Carinae is a stellar system in the constellation Carina.It has a mass of about 100 -> 150 Suns. [See related question]
The mass of the sun is around 3500 times that of Saturn. 3500 Saturn masses = the suns mass.
It is a very bright mass of roiling gas or plasma.
Primordial Mass and Energy.Everything we and the planets are made of came from a sun at one time or another. Hot gas from the sun cools and becomes dust, that collects into molecules and eventually rocks which all form ed the planets, asteroid and such by the force of gravity collecting them together.Even suns are made up of other suns. The only suns that were not are population 1 suns - which coalesced out of the gasses of the universe until the pressure ignited it.
The main two are hydrogen and helium.
