The Kepler space telescope and Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite unveiled that Sun-like stars frequently host exoplanets. These exoplanets are subject to fluxes of ionizing radiation in the form of X-ray and extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) radiation that may cause changes in their atmospheric dynamics and chemistry. While X-ray fluxes can be observed directly, EUV fluxes cannot be observed because of severe interstellar medium absorption. Here we present a new empirical method to estimate the whole stellar X-ray plus EUV (XUV) and far-UV (FUV) spectra as a function of total unsigned magnetic fluxes of stars. The response of the solar XUV and FUV spectrum (0.1-180 nm) to the solar total unsigned magnetic flux is investigated by using the long-term Sun-as-a-star data set over 10 yr, and the power-law relation is obtained for each wavelength with a spectral resolution of 0.1-1 nm. We applied the scaling relations to active young Sun-like stars (G dwarfs), EK Dra (G1.5V), π¹ Uma (G1.5V), and κ¹ Ceti (G5V) and found that the observed spectra (except for the unobservable longward EUV wavelength) are roughly consistent with the extension of the derived power-law relations with errors of an order of magnitude. This suggests that our model is a valuable method to derive the XUV/FUV fluxes of Sun-like stars, including the EUV band mostly absorbed at wavelengths longward of 36 nm. We also discuss differences between the solar extensions and stellar observations at wavelengths in the 2-30 nm band and conclude that simultaneous observations of magnetic and XUV/FUV fluxes are necessary for further validations.
