Any intellectual want to explain what age was Minato was, when he became Kakashi's sensei?

Kakashi was 5 when he graduated the academy.
Most people still debating whether Kakashi was 9 or 13 when he became a jounin.
In Kakashi Gaiden, people say Minato was 17 at the time? Although 21 would seem more plausible.

Lets look at Kakashi's age 5+X=13, which means Minato was their sensei for 7 quite years. So if Minato was really 17 at the time of Kakashi gaiden, he would be 10 years old when he became their sensei, but its plausible to say he was 21, which in this case he was 14 when he was their sensei.

Now if Kakashi was 9 when he was a Jounin, Minato would be 17-19 when he became their sensei.

Overall lets see some discussion...

I always thought Kakashi was 9 when he became a chounin and 13 when he became a jounin

He was 22 when he died, when Kakashi was 14, so there is a 8years difference between them. Since Kakashi graduated at 5, he was around 13-14 when he became their sensei eventhough it's really weird

He had to have been at least 18+ when he was their sensei, since when he is shown teaching them, he looks nowhere near below that age.

its been confirmed kakashi became jounin at 13, next up minato became hokage before he was even of age 30, now i believe sense obito and rin graduted near the same time kakashi was placed as a chuunin in there squad while they were genins. thus why people are getting things confused. next up when it showed in kakashi gaiden minato was like 20-22 years of age.

So either way, Minato became a jounin at a young age too?

Well if Minato was 20-22 and Kakashi was 13 at the time in gaiden, he would've been his sensei for 7 years( Kakashi graduate at age 5). Minato would have been 13-15 when he became a sensei. Unless Kakashi somehow was given a different sensei at the time. Obito and Rin graduated the academy 4 years after Kakashi. Although the manga stated they was put in the same team at the time of graduation.
It would only be plausible if Kakashi was 9 when he became a jounin. Kakashi was 5, Rin and obito was 9 when they became a team, which will put Minato to at least 17-18 when he became their sensei.
