As given

An item is purchased for a wholesale price of $48 and will be sold at a 55 percent markup.

55% is written in the decimal form .

                                              = 55/100

                                              = 0.55

Markup price = 0.55 × wholesale price of item .

                      = 0.55 × $48

                     = $48 (0.55)

Price of item after markup = Wholesale price of item + Markup price

                                           = $48 + $48 (0.55)

Thus, the amount of the markup is $48 + $48 (0.55) .

Option (C) is correct .
