    Alright, so the number is less than 5, we pick it twice, and the sum (2*number) is less than 5, we have 2 options - 2 or 1. 3 or more doesn't work because 3*2=6. The probability of choosing 2 is 1/9, and choosing 2 again is 1/9. Since they don't have anything to do with each other, we multiply 1/9 by 1/9 to get 1/81 as the chance of choosing 2 twice. Since we can have 1 twice too, we add 1/81 to 1/81 to get 2/81
