Angles EFG and ABC are supplementary to DBC, which means that EFG and ABC are the same angle.

Supplementary means that two angles = 180. You can set the two equations of ABC and DBC up so that both equations will add to 180.

(18x + 28) + (7x + 27) = 180

Combine like terms.

18x + 7x = 25x

28 + 27 = 55

25x + 55 = 180.

Subtract 55 from both sides.

25x = 125

Divide both sides by 25 to get x by itself.

x = 5

Plug x into angle ABC. 

18(5) + 28

90 + 28 = 118

The answer is A.
