10 in; if the original 100% was 5 in, then you multiply that by 2.

Answer: 10 in.

Explanation:

Given : The zoom feature on a copier sets the percent size of a copy. Lebron wants to make a 200% copy of a photograph.

We can write 200% = 2 [ ∵ to convert percent into decimal or fraction we divide it by 100 and
200/100=2 ]

Since , The original photo has a width of 5 in.

Then, the width of the copy will be :-


2*5=10\ in.

Hence, the width of the copy will be 10 in.
