Markup means they sell it for that percentage more than they bought it for. First let's calculate how much they will mark it up for:

\sf 55.25\cdot 87\%

Convert 87% into a decimal(87/100):

\sf 55.25\cdot 0.87

Multiply:

\sf\approx 48

This is how much they'll mark it up, now let's add it to how much they bought it for to find out the selling price:

\sf 48+55.25\approx\boxed{\sf \$ 103}
