• Start — Genesis 41:47. The year the seven years of plenty in Egypt began is the year it ended (2298) - its duration (7) = 2291
• End — Genesis 41:53. The year the seven years of plenty in Egypt ended is the year the seven-year famine began = 2298

Years are anno hominis — counted from Creation as year 1 — which is the frame the source computes in. The arithmetic behind each boundary is given above rather than assumed.
