In this task, we need to calculate the new pressure of the gas. Notice that we're given two volume values and one pressure value. The temperature is constant.

To solve this task, we can use the formula for Boyle's law:

p1×V1=p2×V2(1)\tag1p_1 \times V_1 = p_2 \times V_2

More precisely, at a constant temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional. As pressure increases, volume decreases, and vice versa.
