A room is being floored at a rate of Rs. 8.50 per square meter, and the total flooring cost amounts to Rs. 510. If the room's length measures 8 meters, what is its width?

Explanation

To find the width, first calculate the total area by dividing the total cost by the cost per square meter: 510 ÷ 8.50 = 60 square meters. Given the length is 8 meters, the width is area ÷ length = 60 ÷ 8 = 7.5 meters.
