If you double the length of the conductor, then its cross-sectional area must become half of its original value, since is constant.
Therefore, we can say that
Now your wire is bent such that each side has a resistance 4 ohms, since the resistance is divided uniformly.
Now if you make a diagram, you'll see that between vertices, there is an arrangement of two 4 ohms in series connected in parallel with another 4 ohm resistor. The net resistance becomes
8*4/(8+4) = 8/3 ohms.
