Quarterly gas bill question ..

Due to an unusually high gas bill recently, I naturally wondered what the bill would be for the Sun over the same period?

Yes, I know the Sun burns hydrogen as opposed to what comes out of the cooker, but for the sake of argument, let's assume it (Sun) burns the same gas.

I've got as far as the Sun burning 600,000,000 tons of hydrogen per second, which, according to npower is what they estimate I use in the same sorta timescale.

Unfortunately, I've got a bit stuck after this bit as I've nearly run out of noughts in my calculator.

Can anyone help … quarterly bill for the Sun?

70p saturday..50p mon to fri. dont bother sun. £3 20. per week.

equates to £12 80. per calender month.

so my quarterly bill for the sun is. £38 40..

Quarterly gas/electric bills are the work of the devil. Pay it monthly and spread the winter load over the whole year.

You need a smart meter

Sorry for not conforming to your exacting standards.

So am I ... serious thread this, involving not only quantum mathematics, but interstellar travel too.

A quarterly bill for the sun would only be an eightherly really.

Don't forget that the sun goes out every night, thus saving 50% on its gas bill.

To be honest, I've thought through this line of thinking myself. If the Sun was to come out at night instead of the daytime, it'd be off peak, saving even more.
