Android app releases issue

Currently I have a hybrid app in the play store and recently I have developed a native app for that, by improving and adding more functions.

So I would like to roll out that as next update

I have following issues in mind:

After little search I found out the procedure to release an app by Google but it doesn't address my doubts so can someone explain the procedure to how to release the app and clear my doubts.

Just change the version number to +1 and use same package google play store will take this apk .but you have to declare target version and compiled version same or updated.

If you have same key and package name is same play store will take your Apk. update your version number and put target and build version same or latest.
