Let Original Resistance is R. 

We know that {tex}R \propto l{/tex} 
So, when the wire is cut into four equal parts, the resistance of each part is {tex}{1\over 4}{th }{/tex} of the original substance.
Hence, R1 = R2 = R3 = R4 =  {tex}{R\over 4}{/tex}
Also Let new resistance is R'.

 When these 4 parts are joined in parallel,
Then {tex}{1\over R'}= {4\over R} + {4\over R} + {4\over R} + {4\over R}{/tex}

{tex}=> {1\over R'} = {16\over R}\\ => R' = {R\over 16}{/tex}
