Oracle INTEGER type does not allow either precision nor scale.
Actually, Oracle's INTEGER is basically the same as NUMBER(38, 0).

In your case you can change the definition of overdue_cost and days_checked_out in two ways:

1. Define them as INTEGERS, but leave the presision/scale out:

   overdue_cost     INTEGER,    
   days_checked_out INTEGER
   

2. Define them as NUMBER(10, 0) - preferred, since one of the fields has non-zero scale.

   overdue_cost     NUMBER(10, 0),    
   days_checked_out NUMBER(10, 2)
