Hi jeena,
If you copy & paste the picture into a Word document with an A3 page size, you can stretch the picture to fit the page size.
Alternatively, you could re-scale it with almost any graphics program.
However, with only 805 x 574 pixels to start with - and in jpeg format to boot - you'll never get a quality A3 image. There simply isn't enough detail in what you've got for that, regardless of what sort of high-tech resampling you could use in a decent graphics program to scale the image up to, say 240dpi @ A3 (which is about what you'd need for a quality image at the normal A3 viewing distance of 45-50cm). That would equate to a 5x enlargement.
Cheers
