Answer:

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law for constant temperature of gas Pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of gas.

$PV=nRT$

$PV=constant$

$P\propto \frac{1}{V}$

if Pressure is tripled then

$P\times V_1=3P\times V_2$

$V_2=\frac{V_1}{3}$

Volume becomes one-third of original volume
