Simply if there are 335 seats in this system - Total votes from Nepal will be added and percentage of votes gained will be calculated.

For example a party will have 35% of the total votes from Nepal - it will get approximately 117 seats out of 335. In this system if a loose party everywhere (like RPP Nepal) gets altogether 2% votes, it will get 7 seats.

The winner candidate will be declared based on the list each party has submitted for PR system. The senior in rank will get preference for example the first candidate to win will be Girija who is in the first position in list. Also there are provision to allocate for ladies and other janjati etc.
