So even if Trump cruises on 35% in all states he still would have much more in delegate count.

Trump?s Remorseless Delegate Math Means Rubio and Cruz Are Screwed - The Daily Beast

He may collect 50%+ majority.
You mention "under 40%". I am absolutely certain it will be more than 40%. Only question - bellow or above 50%.

As for if convention is contested and Trump is in high lead (but not 50%+) - he may have a card of threatening to go independent. He pledged he won't, but he may say that GOP treated him unfairly since he had most of the delegates etc etc.
Just an idea actually. An idea of why GOP might be afraid not to hand it to Trump if he was in high lead.
After Mar 15 ALL republican primaries are winner take all you wanna see how serious the RNC is watch and see if THEY run a 3rd party candidate to derail their own guy If that happens in any way shape or form its proof how corrupt the dem and Reps are and that they are of a single purpose
