How would the volume if a gas in a piston under 14*"bar" pressure with a volume of 312*mL, were reduced in pressure to 7*"bar" pressure?

Would it not be around 7*"bar".........?

Explanation:

Old Boyle's Law holds that given constant temperature, and for a given amount of gas.....Pprop1/V........

Else, PV=k, and thus solving for k at different pressures and volumes......

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

And so......P_2=(P_1V_1)/V_2=(14*"bar"xx312*mL)/(652*mL)=??*"bar".
