Answer 2

Given - Cost and length

Find - Breadth

Solution - The breadth of the floor is 8 metres

9.50 is the cost of flooring area = 1 m²

760 will be the cost of flooring area = 1*760/9.5

Total area = 80 m²

Area = Length * Breadth

80 = 10*Breadth

Breadth = 80/10

Breadth = 8 metres

So, the breadth of the floor is 8 metres.
