The arc from trost (age 15)  to eren getting the ability is probably less than a year so he is probably 16 years old Well, actually during the time between the arcs from Trost and the Female Titan Arc to Clash of Titans and the Uprising Arcs, which according to some, all happened in the course of three months. Its hard to believe all that craziness happens in the span of 3 months!?! I don't now. It doesn't really surprise me. It's been one thing after another in the manga. In most of the cases, the ending arc leads quite neatly into the next arc. There aren't very many gaps in the story where nothing happens. And the time frames for gaps aren't really given, except for the latest one, where Reiner says it's been two months. That doesn't necessarily mean the time between Historia's crowning and the expedition though. Reiner, Bertholdt and the Beast titan may not necessarily know how long he's been training with his new ability, so it may actually just be two months since they last saw Eren and the othes.

Besides, most of the arcs are quite short, anyway. The Battle of Trost goes over about a day or two and so does the uprising, at least from what I can tell.
