By Genesis 9:18-24, Ham was the youngest son. By Gen. 10:21, Shem's older brother was Japheth.
So, oldest to youngest the sons of Noah were Japheth, Shem and Ham.
The Bible doesn't say if they were triplets or not, though I would assume it would be mentioned if they were, as it does mention Jacob and Esau were twins, with Esau being the elder.

Noah had three sons, Ham, Shem, and Japheth. There is no mention of them being triplets, but it seems unlikely.

No they were not triplets, but there is a paragraph there that refers to Shem as the eldest son, somewhere there when they were aboard the Ark, and pairing the animals. And another refering to Shem's wife?
