Helloz :)
If you say "ما هو عمرك؟" you will be understood, however it's not correct Arabic.
The correct question is "كم عمرك؟" meaning how much your age. I know it sounds weird for English ears but that's how it works.
For the answer you say "عمري أربعة وعشرون سنة"
عمري = my age
أربعة وعشرون = literally means four and twenty
سنة = year
I hope this answers your question.
