Typically, its difficult to imagine the difference between sensor sizing purely by reading technical specs. The graphic underneath should give you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the E-M10 IV and TG-310.

As you have seen, both of the cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The E-M10 IV with its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF simpler and the Olympus E-M10 IV will deliver greater detail using its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop shots much more aggressively. The younger E-M10 IV provides an edge with regard to sensor innovation.
