B Correct answer
Explanation

The ratio 14:9 indicates the oldest person is 14 years old and the youngest is 9 years old, or some multiple of this ratio. Age ratio problems typically involve setting up equations from given relationships between multiple people's ages. Without the specific age relationships or data about the group members, this answer cannot be verified independently.
