Corporate bonds reduce down so the actual corporate quote would be 116 3/4 and not 6/8. The 105 1/2 is correct because it was 4/8 reduced down to 1/2. I believe it’s government bonds that don’t reduce.

Yep, it’s as @Robot says: 116 6/8 should have been reduced to 116 3/4.

And just make sure you’ve noticed this is an EXCEPT question!
