Gillian and her friends are playing a card game using a standard deck, but without the aces. In the deck, there are 36 numbered cards, 4 jacks, 4 queens, and 4 kings. The numbered cards are worth 1 point, jacks are worth 2 points, queens are worth 3 points, and kings are worth 4 points. Each person draws one card, writes down what its worth, and then puts it back. The player with the highest point total after 10 rounds wins. If there are 4 players playing the game, what is the best prediction for the amount of numbered cards that will be drawn during the game?
