    28.1%

    Explanation:

    Step 1:

    Given that

    Cost price for the seller = 290$

    Selling price for the seller = 403.1$

    Profit = 403.1$ - 290$ = 113.1$

    Step 2:

    Markup based on Selling price = (Profit/Selling Price) * 100

    -> (113.1/403.1) * 100=28.057%

    This can be rounded of to 28.1% (nearest tenth)
