There is a superfluous letter in each clue which needs to be ignored to reach the solution

Is the answer a synonym of the first word?
Which word contains superfluous letter (that or means) ? Can't understand this

Is the answer Reapplying
To remove a from launch?

1 You need to remove a letter from ‘losers’ leaving another word. ‘Something that means action’ is the definition.

3. Yes, the answer is an anagram of ‘Paper’ plus ‘lying’.

4. Yes, remove the last letter from a 3 letter word meaning a maths problem and remove the last letter from the 3rd person singular of a word meaning ‘says’ or ‘affirms’. ‘More sophisticated’ is the definition.
Saw = proverb

Lose(r)s (R is superfluous)

Pro(verb) loses in favour of (pro)

Verb is something that means action
2 You need to remove a letter from ‘ruling’. This plus ‘state’ then forms the definition part. For the wordplay, put a 5-letter word for small change or coppers round E(nglish) and a 3-letter slang word for money spelt backwards.
