    Answer: 35 girl costumes, 25 boy costumes.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    60 split into 2 groups is 30 each.

    Add 5 to one group and subtract 5 from the other to get a difference of 10.

    Girls group is 30+5=35

    Boys group is 30-5=25

    They will need 25 boy costumes and 35 girls costumes.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are x boys.

    There are x + 10 girls.

    Altogether, there are x + x + 10 students.

    Altogether, there are 60 students, so

    x + x + 10 = 60

    2x + 10 = 60

    2x + 50

    x = 25 (boys)

    x + 10 = 35 (girls)
