How many leaves does a tree have?
It depends on the tree's species and age, but a mature, healthy tree can have 200,000 leaves. During 60 years of life, such a tree would grow and shed 3,600 pounds of leaves, returning about 70% of their nutrients to the soil.

Note that it would be incorrect to just double the number of leaves for a tree that is twice as tall. A better estimate would be Eight times because it would e twice as tall, and twice as wide it two directions 2 * 2 * 2 = 8

It is hard to say to how leaves are one perticular tree.
It depends on the tree height, and how it limbs beranch off, and the growth season factors such, rain,wind, and all other nature things.
you would get bunch of leaves this year and next half or less than that,
the only way for you to know for sure how many leaves there are you will have to pick them un and hand count them. but this number count would be off cause you don't when the new leaves have started.
or can climb the and hand pick all the leaves and count them that way.
