Answer:

The correct answer is -
(P)/(4).

Step-by-step explanation:

By the ideal gas equation is PV=nRT, the relation between pressure and volume can be drive if the temperature remains constant:

At constant temperature, for a fixed amount of gas, P∝

so the pressure is inversely proportional to volume. Therefore, if the volume is increased in this condition the pressure will decrease in the same manner and A decrease in the volume will lead to an increase in pressure.

Volume increased here = four times = 4V

pressure is P will decrease four times = P/4
