As we learnt in

Relation between emitter current ,Base current,collector current -

I_{E}= I_{B}+I_{C}
 

- wherein

I_{E}=Emitter\: Current

I_{B}= Base \: Current

I_{C}= Collector \: Current

 

 I_{E}=I_{C}+I_{B}

Here IE = 5.6 mA

    IC = 5.488 mA

\therefore\ \, I_{B}=I_{E}-I_{C}=0.112\ mA

Current amplification factor

\beta=\frac{I_{C}}{I_{B}}=\frac{5.488}{0.112}=49

Correct option is 2.
