I'm sure your textbook has all the answers. :)However, I'll tell you this: your guesses are right so far...and I'll give you one of the harder ones. A is #10. Fractional reserve simply means that they keep (e.g. reserve) a percentage (fraction) of the money you deposit, then loan out the remainder. They make the assumption that customers won't ask for more than a small amount of their money at any one time, and earn money from the interest paid by loaning out the rest. In fact, that's why they pay you interest - as a fee for loaning out your money. Most banks today have moved away from a fractional reserve into a sort of floating reserve, though...
