Main sequence with 30% of the hydrogen fuel of the sun


A low-mass star with 30% the mass of the Sun begins its life on the Main Sequence with 30% of the hydrogen fuel of the Sun. However, since its luminosity is 1% of the Sun's luminosity, it will burn through this fuel 100 times slower than the Sun does. Given that the Sun will live on the Main Sequence for 10 billion years, how long will the 0.3 Solar mass star live on the Main Sequence? Fill in the blank with your (integer) answer, in billions of years: The Main Sequence lifetime of a 0.3 Solar-mass star is___________billion years.
