She was only 13 years old when she was killed in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, and her youth only makes the tragedy that much harder for Katniss to bear after everything else she had suffered. Prim's death is a truly heartbreaking moment.
Katniss, meanwhile, is four years older and very protective of Prim, and so without hesitation she volunteers to take her sister's place. Moreover, she has years of experience hunting (and therefore killing) and is far less sensitive than her sister, making her more likely to survive the ordeal of the Games.

How much older is Gale than Katniss?
Answer and Explanation: Gale is eighteen in The Hunger Games, two years older than Katniss. Since the citizens of the Districts cannot be selected after they turn nineteen, this is the last year when Gale can be chosen as a Tribute.
District 12 has the most Hunger Games victors, with five winners, including Katniss, Peeta, Haymitch, and Lucy Gray. Finnick Odair is the youngest winner in history, winning at just 14 years old.
Effie Trinket has a more significant role in The Hunger Games movie than she did in the book, so it's a bit difficult to gauge how old she is in the first film. However, it is safe to say that the District 12 escort is in her thirties.
We learn in Catching Fire that Haymitch is around 16 or 17 when he wins the 50th Hunger Games. He mentors Katniss and Peeta 24 years later making him around 40 in the first book. A year later is catching fire and the year after that is mockingjay. By the end of the series (not including the epilogue) he is around 43.
On March 23, 2011, Lionsgate began casting the role of Peeta for the film of The Hunger Games. According to The Hollywood Reporter, contenders for the role included Josh Hutcherson, Alexander Ludwig (later cast as Cato), Hunter Parrish, Lucas Till, and Evan Peters.
At the age of 16, Haymitch was reaped as one of District 12's two male tributes for the 50th Hunger Games alongside Maysilee Donner and another female tribute. It is unknown who mentored him, and the same is true for District 12's other three tributes.
There were some doubts about the fact that she was twenty years old and the character of Katniss starts as a sixteen-year-old, but both the director and author believed Lawrence was completely right for the part. They believed that because she was older she would bring the maturity to the character that was required.
Prim is Katniss' 12-year-old sister. Prim takes after their mother, who has light hair and blue eyes. This reaping is her first, and Katniss has only allowed her to enter her name once into the drawing.
Johanna Mason, from District 7 and another major character during the revolution, is around the same age as Finnick and Annie. Johanna won the 71st Hunger Games when she was 17 years old, meaning that she's around 21 or 22 old during Catching Fire and Mockingjay.
While in the woods, Haymitch runs into three career tributes. He's outmanned but not outgunned as he quickly kills two of them with his knife. The final tribute manages to disarm him, and as they go in for the kill fellow District 12 tribute Maysilee Donner kills the career with a dart.
This interaction was so surprising to fans because it's not in the books at all. While, throughout the series, there's some chemistry between the two, nothing ever comes of the tension in Suzanne Collins' novels. Beyond the kiss, nothing happened between the two in the movies either.
even then, both of them had very different ways of achieving their success. haymitch is all sarcasm and rough prodding whereas effie tries to be as sweet, and patient as possible. effie is from the capitol, she cares about fashion and food and decorations whereas haymitch....just wants his liquor.
Mags, an eighty-year-old woman, volunteered for the 75th Hunger Games in the place of Annie Cresta, becoming a tribute alongside Finnick Odair, whom she mentored in the 65th Hunger Games and (according to the book and film) practically raised.
Answer and Explanation: Finnick Odair is 24 in Catching Fire. He was 14 when he won the 65th Hunger Games, ten years before the events of Catching Fire. A skilled fighter who is adept at surviving seemingly unbeatable odds, he is one of the Capitol citizens' favorite Victors.
Rue. Rue is the youngest tribute of the 74th Hunger Games, at only 12 years old. She is small and very smart, and survives the first few days in the arena by hiding in trees. She and Katniss become allies after Rue points out a Tracker Jacker nest, which Katniss avoids and then uses to take out several Career tributes.
Finnick was able to weave nets out of vines he'd found in the arena, entangling opponents before spearing them with his new weapon. In a matter of days, he was crowned the victor.
Annie Cresta is one of the victors of District 4. She won The 70th Hunger Games at age 18. She also got married by her mentor, Finnick Odair. She suffered from PTSD after her Games, after seeing her district partner being beheaded by a Career during the Games she was in.
