Explanation:

How many June T note futures do you have to enter short positions on?

The June T note futures we have to enter short positions on is calculated as:

= Portfolio duration*Portfolio value/(Futures price*Face value/100)*1/Duration of cheapest to deliver bond

= 5.77*$902,654 / (115*1000) * 1/4.36

= 5208313.58/115000*0.2293577981651376

= 10.38754204228161

= 10.39
