Explanation:

a) Reserve Ratio:  This is the portion of deposit liabilities that commercial banks must keep, rather than lend out or invest as determined by the country's central bank.   In the United States, the Federal Reserve determines the Reserve Ratio and uses it to control the money supply in the economy.

b) The Money Multiplier refers to the change that happens when an initial deposit leads to a bigger final increase in the total money supply.   For example, a commercial bank has deposit liability of $1 million and this leads to a final money supply of $10 million. The money multiplier is 10.  The formula for calculating the money multiplier is 1/RR, where RR is the Reserve Ratio.  This means that the money multiplier is a function of the reserve ratio.

i think this is true i hope this
