Fifty slips are placed into a hat, each bearing a number from 1 to 10, with each number entered on five slips. Five slips are drawn from the hat at random and without replacement. Let $p$ be the probability that all five slips bear the same number. Let $q$ be the probability that three slips bear a number $a$ and the other two bear a number $b\ne a$. What is the value of $q/p$?
