Let's think step by step.

If John is 30 and twice as old as Maya then Maya is 30 / 2 = 15 years old.

Drew is 5 years older than Maya so Drew is 15 + 5 = 20 years old.

Peter is 4 years older than Drew so is 20 + 4 = 24 years old.

In 2 years, Peter will be 24 + 2 = 26 years old.

Half of Peter’s age in 2 years will be 26 / 2 = 13 years old and Jacob’s age in 2 years.

Jacob now is 13 - 2 = 11 years old.

The final answer: 11
