If $1$ appears on the first drawn slip, then the possibilities that the number appears on the second drawn slip are $2,\,3,$ or $4 .$ Similarly, if $2$ appears on the first drawn slip, then the possibilities that the number appears on the second drawn slip are $1,\,3,$ or $4 .$ The same holds true for the remaining number too.

Thus, the sample space of this experiment is given by

$S=\{(1,2),\,(1,3)$, $(1,4),\,(2,1)$, $(2,3),\,(2,4),\,(3,1),\,(3,2)$, $(3,4),\,(4,1)$, $(4,2),\,(4,3)\}$
