Solution

  1. Determine Keddy's age in terms of Anisa's age: Keddy is 5 times as old as Anisa. Therefore, Keddy's age = 5m.

  2. Determine Cheko's age in terms of Keddy's age: Cheko is 11 years older than Keddy. Therefore, Cheko's age = 5m + 11.

  3. Calculate Cheko's age 2 years ago: Cheko's age 2 years ago = (5m + 11) - 2.

  4. Simplify the expression: Cheko's age 2 years ago = 5m + 9.

Therefore, Cheko was 5m + 9 years old 2 years ago.
