Hey there!

We have 10 pieces of paper. The probability of drawing a 10 is 1/10. Therefore, if we were to draw ten times, the ten should probably be drawn once. If we multiplied our number of drawings by four (10*4=40), our outcome of seeing our slip with the ten should also quadruple and become four times. (1*4=4)

I hope that this helps! Have an awesome day!
