If you push on the sides of a filled balloon, how does the gas pressure inside the balloon change? What variable did you decrease to cause this change in pressure?

If we squeeze the balloon, the volume of the balloon decreases. So, the pressure inside the balloon increases. ( Volume and pressure are indirectly proportional. That means if the volume increases , pressure decreases and vice-versa.)
