Question 355810: I cannot figure out how to get the answer to this question.
Under constant temperature, the volume occupied by a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure applied. If the gas occupies a volume of 20 cubic inches under pressure of 6 lbs per square inch, find the volume when the gas is subjected to a pressure of 10 lbs per square inch.
If you could please work this out for me to show how to get the answer I would apprecicate it.
Thanks,

inversely proportional means that the product of the pressure and volume is constant
20 * 6 = x * 10
