That would depend upon the translation/version of Scripture read. Some would clearly indicate Japheth to be eldest while others would indicate Shem.
Genesis 10:21New King James Version (NKJV)21 And children were born also to Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder.
Further, Genesis 9:24-25 is thought to tell the reader Ham is the youngest son of Noah. But others will interpret these verses to indicate Noah was speaking of Ham's youngest son, Canaan whom He cursed.

∙ 12y agoNoah was the son of Lamech, born about 10 generations after Adam, around 2970 BCE. He fulfilled prophecy (Genesis 5:28-31) faithfully following God's command, by building an ark which saved the human race and many of the creatures who share the earth with us, when God brought a flood to destroy the wicked.(Genesis 6:13-22)(Genesis 7:11,12,24; Genesis 8:2-6,10,12-14)(Hebrews 11:7)(Luke 17:27).
Noah's sons, Shem, Ham and Japheth (Genesis 9:18), are the ancestors of everyone on earth today(Genesis 9:1-7 +10:32).
