The first draw doesn't matter. Whatever you get the first time, you must match 9 more times.
The probability of this happening is (1/24)^9, assuming that all of the numbers in the hat are different.

Is this answer 1 in 264,180,754,022,399?
I did your formula and came out with this. Sorry I am not the best at computing odds would just like a 1:x answer for this.

I wouldn't have even bothered checking your answer, but I knew that the answer had to be an even number.
