Correct answer: checking one's financial records against the bank’s.

Reconciliation means comparing your checkbook/ledger or accounting records with the bank statement to make sure transactions and balances match. This process can reveal errors, timing differences (outstanding checks), or unauthorized transactions, but “reconciling” itself is the comparison—other options describe different activities.
