Answer:

The daughter is 18 years now and 5 years back 13 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume mother was x years old when she gave birth to her daughter

so mother age at time of birth = 36- x

age of daughter =x

36-x = x

36 =2x

36/2 = x

18 = x

Hence 5 years back

18-5 =13

ANSWER= 13 years old
