This is an incorrect choice. The word "worth" is unnecessary in this construction, and using it makes the sentence grammatically incorrect. We can say either "that dress costs 150 euros" or "that dress is worth 150 euros" (which mean different things!).
This is a correct choice. To have fifty euros' worth of cheese is to have an amount of cheese equal to the value of fifty euros. We often use a price to precede "worth" to describe the exact value of something. Examples: 100 dollars' worth of stock, a pound's worth of sweets.
This is a correct choice. If a diamond ring is "worth" 200,000 euros then it has a value of 200,000 euros. As a noun, "worth" is synonymous with "value" (but not necessarily with "price"). In this conversation, Bruno says that Harold himself "is worth hundreds of millions of dollars". Occasionally we use the term "worth" to describe how much money a person has.
This is an incorrect choice. Do not confuse the word "worth", which refers to the value of something, with the adjective "worse", which refers to the deterioration of something. Example: the weather is getting worse. This morning it was cloudy, but now it is raining too.
This is a correct choice. The idiom "it's not worth (fixing the car)" means that the trouble, pain or cost of fixing the car doesn't make sense. For example, if someone has destroyed a car, and it would cost more money to repair the car than to buy a new one, we could say to him "it's not worth it". This idiom uses the term "worth" correctly. Bonus example: It's not worth washing the car because it's going to rain this afternoon anyway.

This is a good choice. If "a painting is worth $100", it means that "the painting's value is $100" or "the painting costs $100". In this sentence, the person wants to know the value of the painting. Another example: "This ring is worth a lot of money, so please don't lose it". In these examples, "worth" is used as an adjective.
This sentence uses "worth" incorrectly. The word "worth" is unnecessary in this construction, and using it makes the sentence grammatically incorrect. We can say either "my skirt cost £200" or "my skirt is worth £200" (which mean slightly different things!).
This sentence uses "worth" correctly, as a noun. "Eight dollars" worth of tofu' is a quantity of tofu equal to the value of $8. Here's another example of this construction: "I ate a pound's worth of sweets this morning, and now I feel sick".
This is an incorrect choice. Do not confuse the word "worth", which refers to the value of something, with the adjective "worse", which refers to the deterioration of something. Example: "The weather is getting worse and worse. This morning it was cloudy, but now it is raining too".
"Worth" is used correctly here. The expression "it's worth it" means that something is "important" or "beneficial" enough, so it should be done. An example of this construction used in the negative: "Don't start a fight with him: he's not worth it!".
