The average adopted here for the student's monthly requirement is 6, after shortening them to give a total of 6 million. This figure was adopted because it is the closest rounded number to the average of the estimates.

The estimates based on the demands of the cultivators were considered the basis for division, as these estimates are, from different perspectives (from the farmer's perspective and the pump owner's perspective), closer to the desired theoretical conditions than Mr. Hurst's estimate, which was based on the fact that the actual consumption was below average. It is known that 1914, 1915, and 1918 actually occurred during three years.

The farmer currently still requires more water in the summer, which is wasted during the flood.

The necessary quantities of water will be divided among the various canals before these quantities are corrected to account for the extraction of subsoil water by lifting machines. The difference resulting from this is a small difference. It was observed in the adopted estimate that the irrigation of the Sharq would take part of June and all of July, at the request of His Excellency Ismail Sir Pasha. This explains the difference between Mr. Hurst's estimate, which is based on actual practice, and the other estimates. No account was taken of the water demand in January due to the annual flow of the canals. However, if navigation becomes necessary in the future, it will be necessary to estimate an additional 100 million, and other quantities of water ranging between 100 and 100 million. This amount can be reduced by partially closing the canals and diverting some of the water required for agriculture in February to January.

It is clear from comparing the details of the estimates that the distribution ratio in both estimates B and C is similar, although estimate B is larger than C. With the difference between them, the demands for the flood period are met. Regarding the period from February to June, the three estimates, 100 million, 100 million, and 100 million, are very similar. Here is a breakdown of each: Molesworth, Willidonia, Hurst, and Cooper.

In July, Mr. Hurst's estimate is much lower than the other two, which agree well. The reason for this is that in the years on which Mr. Hurst's calculation is based, very little irrigation occurred in July. Therefore, the actual amount of water used was much less than the theoretical amount.

In the period from August to December, Mr. Hurst's estimate exceeds Colonel Cooper's estimate and is close to the estimates of Mr. Harworth and Mr. Vidonia. Due to the abundance of water during the flood, the amount used is more than necessary. Therefore, Mr. Hurst's estimate, based on actual quantities used, is undoubtedly more prone to extravagance. Perhaps Colonel Cooper's estimate, based on quantities lifted by machines, is closer to the actual quantities required.

It was assumed that the adopted division is a fair division and the best that can be achieved with our current knowledge.

These can be considered negligible quantities and are in any case deducted from the water calculation before estimating the available quantities for current consumption. These quantities are measured downstream of Aswan, i.e., after deducting Sudan's water.
