b will be 32 years old
let the ratio equal to 9x : 8x : 5x
given : 9x + 5x = 56
therfore, x = 4
therefore b = 8x = 32

A/C=9/5
=>5A=9C
=>5A/9=C ............(i)
BUT
A+C=56
=>A+5A/9=56
=>(9A+5A)/9=56
14A=504
=>A=36 .............(ii)
NOW A:B=9:8
=>8A=9B
=>8A/9=B
=>B=32
=>5A=9C
=>5A/9=C ............(i)
BUT
A+C=56
=>A+5A/9=56
=>(9A+5A)/9=56
14A=504
=>A=36 .............(ii)
NOW A:B=9:8
=>8A=9B
=>8A/9=B
=>B=32
