🧠 The "Aha!" Moment
The temperature is constant (). When temperature and the amount of gas are fixed, we are in the realm of Boyle's Law. The pressure and volume are inversely proportional.

🗺️ The Standard Equation
According to Boyle's Law:

1. Identify the Given Values:
   - Initial pressure () = 
   - Initial volume () = 
   - Final volume () = 
2. Setup the calculation:
   
3. Solve for :

⚡ The 30-Second Insight
Look at the volume change:  to  is a -fold decrease ().
Since pressur
