The age of the Solar System HAS TO BE at least as much as that of the oldest rocks found on Earth, other planets, or asteroids (if you assume that those rocks come from the Solar System) - and that's what has been found. And that's the approximate age of the oldest rocks found. The main methods used rely on radiometric dating. For more information, check the Wikipedia (or other sources) for:* Age of the Earth

How old do scientists think the solar system?

Modern interpretation of the scientific evidence places the age of our solar system somewhere around four and a half billion years. Some sources indicate closer to five billion, but often the Earth itself indicated as being slightly younger, something around 4.55 billion. Oldest terrestrial rocks discovered so far are thought to be a little under four billion years of age.


How old is the solar system estimated to be?

It's your solar system too. Well we can use maths to work out how long it would take certain things in our and other solar systems to form, and by using models and simulations coupled with the laws of physics.
