Answer 1

The general formula for state someone's age is to use the formula

Tener + age + años

Where tener is conjugated to match the person to whose age you are referring.

For example:

• Tengo 20 (veinte) años - I am 20 years old

• Tienes 13 (trece) años - You are 13 years old

From these examples, you should be able to figure out how to say this for yourself. If you need additional reference, here is a link to a conjugation table for the verb "tener" and a list of numbers in Spanish to 100
