Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 24,184 votes, 2.2× the 11,057-vote margin.

    24,184 ÷ 11,057 = 2.2

  2. The top two polled 53.6% of votes; the other 16 candidates 46.4% between them.

    (40,143 + 29,086) ÷ 1,29,062 = 53.6% · 59,833 ÷ 1,29,062 = 46.4%

  3. Turnout of 53.4% was 2.4 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).

    53.4 − 55.8 = −2.4

Each line is arithmetic over the figures on this page.
