A gas has a pressure of 4.62 atm when its volume is 2.33 L. What will be the pressure of the gas if the volume is changed to 1.03 L under conditions of constant temperature?

Boyle's law states p1v1=p2v2 and you are trying to solve for p2 so your answer will be p1v1/v2=p2. Since the volume of gas almost halves, the pressure will almost double.
