Could somebody please provide a step-through approach to solving the following problem using the Banker's Algorithm? How do I determine whether a "safe-state" exists? What is meant when a process can "run to completion"?

In this example, I have four processes and 10 instances of the same resource.

          Resources Allocated | Resources Needed
Process A                   1                  6
Process B                   1                  5
Process C                   2                  4
Process D                   4                  7
