If a sample of gas is cooled at a constant pressure until it shrinks to one-fourth its initial volume, what change in its kelvin temperature must have occurred?

(V1/T1) =(V2/T2)
Since no initial volume is given I suggest you pick one that is convenient (make sure it divides by 3 evenly), then take 1/3 of that for V2.
