Answer is GMJ = 107

Angle GMJ = 12x - 1

MNK = 13x - 44

Angle GMI is corresponding to angle MNK
So it is congruent or the same so

GMI = 13x - 44

GMI and GMJ are supplementary angles so added together will equal 180 degrees

12x -1 + 13x - 44 = 180

Combine

25x - 45 = 180

Add 45 to both sides to isolate x

25x -45 + 45 = 180 + 45

Combine

25x = 225

Divide both sides by 25 to solve x

25/25 x = 225/25

x = 9

Now to solve for angle GMJ
GMJ = 12x - 1

Substitute 9 for x

GMJ = (12)(9) -1

GMJ = 107
