Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BJP polled 27,889 votes, 1.2× the 22,699-vote margin.
27,889 ÷ 22,699 = 1.2
The top two polled 76.3% of votes; the other 4 candidates 23.3% between them.
(60,534 + 37,835) ÷ 1,28,960 = 76.3% · 30,057 ÷ 1,28,960 = 23.3%
Turnout of 72.1% was 4.4 pp above the state's median seat (67.7%).
72.1 − 67.7 = +4.4
