If you are not looking to do a major floor rebuild you can only approach this one way. Using a long level you will need to loosen boards and use shims at certain points. Make sure to use small shims and constantly check your level. Do not re-nail any boards until you are fully leveled.

If they are concrete use self leveling concrete. If they are wood then you'll need to use shims or jack up the beam supporting the joists.
