How to ask and answer this?

Hi! everyone.Could you tell me,how can I ask and answer this question?
if I bumped in to asking this question or if I were to answer this question,how would I say it?
Scenario-:(We are 4 brothers and 2 sisters)Now if someone asks me ,At what place are you in your brothers regarding the age?(Is this question correct?In which other ways ,can I ask this question?)
Now what would be my answer-:Actually I am the 3rd in my brothers regarding the age?(would this be my answer?)
What is the natural way of asking this question and answer?
(Please do notify me,if you find any fault in my Grammar.)
Thanks!
