Summation of the Twelfth Dynasty. The diagonal trace above the last numbers is likely the start of a bracket around the end of the line that encroach column 8, as can also be seen in (3.14), (5.16) and (8.3). The trace of the last number can only be a 7. Manetho recorded a total of 160/182 years of reign for this dynasty.1

Egyptologists have established that Wegaf could not have been the first king of the Thirteenth Dynasty,1 and his prenomen (ḫw-tꜢwy-rꜤ) written here indicate an unintended swap of the similar prenomen of Sobekhotep I (sḫm-rꜤ-ḫw-tꜢwy) recorded further down in the list (7.19).2 The trace after Ꜣbd can only be the plural .w sign.

Gardiner incorrectly read a f below the numbers,1 but there is no trace of that on fr. 70. Furthermore, the fragment has moved slightly to the left compared to Gardiner, because there is no vertical fibre correspondence between fr. 70 and 78,2 and also leave room for a longer text. Fragment 76 is the first row of Champollion's fragment G. As can be seen in the photo, Farina joined a tiny fragment to the left side of fr. 77,3 which is not present in Lepsius, Gardiner, or Ryholt, as the fibres do not match,4 or at least, is questionable.
