You know that the total race is 50 miles. If each lap is 10 miles and 4 laps have already been completed, there would be one lap left.

This is because of the following,

10x4 = 40

50-40 = 10

1 lap= 10 miles

If a bike race is 50 miles long, and each lap is 10 miles, then we will count by tens per lap. So if 4 laps have already been completed, we take 10 x 4 to get 40. If each lap is 10 miles long, then all we need is 1 more lap to get to 50. So your answer would be 1 lap is left. Hope this helped!
