1. **Problem 1: Find the length of the enlarged copy given the original length is 15 cm.**
Since no scale factor or additional information is given, we cannot determine the enlarged length. More information is needed.
2. **Problem 2: Find the percentage profit Tony made on the car.**
Given:
- Cost price (CP) = 1500
- Selling price (SP) = 2150
Formula for percentage profit:
$$\text{Percentage Profit} = \left(\frac{\text{SP} - \text{CP}}{\text{CP}}\right) \times 100$$
Step 1: Calculate profit:
$$\text{Profit} = 2150 - 1500 = 650$$
Step 2: Calculate percentage profit:
$$\text{Percentage Profit} = \left(\frac{650}{1500}\right) \times 100$$
Step 3: Simplify the fraction:
$$\frac{650}{1500} = \frac{\cancel{650}}{\cancel{1500}} = \frac{13}{30}$$
Step 4: Calculate the percentage:
$$\frac{13}{30} \times 100 = \frac{1300}{30} = 43.33\%$$
**Answer:** Tony made a 43.33% profit on the car.
3. **Problem 3: Find the weight decrease from 64.8 kg to 59.3 kg.**
Step 1: Calculate the decrease in weight:
$$64.8 - 59.3 = 5.5\text{ kg}$$
Step 2: Calculate the percentage decrease:
$$\text{Percentage decrease} = \left(\frac{5.5}{64.8}\right) \times 100$$
Step 3: Simplify the fraction:
$$\frac{5.5}{64.8} = \frac{\cancel{5.5}}{\cancel{64.8}} \approx 0.0849$$
Step 4: Calculate the percentage:
$$0.0849 \times 100 = 8.49\%$$
**Answer:** Bill's weight decreased by 5.5 kg, which is approximately 8.49%.
