Two samples $A$ and $B$ of a gas,initially at the same pressure and temperature,are compressed from volume $V$ to $V/2$. Sample $A$ is compressed isothermally,and sample $B$ is compressed adiabatically. The final pressure of $A$ is:

$A$ monoatomic gas at pressure $P$ having volume $V$ expands isothermally to a volume $2V$ and then adiabatically to a volume $16V$. The final pressure of the gas is $\left(\gamma = \frac{5}{3}\right)$.

Initial pressure and volume of a gas are $P$ and $V$ respectively. First,its volume is expanded to $4V$ by an isothermal process,and then its volume is reduced to $V$ by an adiabatic process. Find its final pressure if $\gamma = \frac{3}{2}$.
