Dumbledore was around 115 when he died.
That was Rowling's original statement. But then, from evidence in HBP and DH, it's clear that Dumbledore was much younger than that, though above 100. I can't remember whether his age/birthyear is clearly stated in DH or simply implied. But he's definitely not 150.
If Tom Riddle died at age seventy/eighty, dumbledore was probably older than thirty at the time he was born.

Leah, 150 was the age Ron gave in the HBP movie. He was quite young when he went to tell Tom Riddle he was a wizard, as he still had auburn hair. He was between 114 and 116 at his death.
