The problem is a combination problem where we need to choose 4 numbers out of 10 without regard to order. The number of combinations is calculated using the formula C(n, k) = n! / (k!(n-k)!), where n is the total number of items to choose from, and k is the number of items to choose. Here, n = 10 and k = 4, so C(10, 4) = 10! / (4! * 6!) = 210.
