Decreasing the pressure applied to the gas (apex)
The pressure of the gas inside the container will increase due to the increased kinetic energy of the gas molecules. This is described by the ideal gas law, PV = nRT, where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant, and T is temperature.
An increase in temperature or a decrease in volume would call the pressure to increase. Apex- increasing the number of gas particles
If you decrease the size of a container holding a gas, the pressure of the gas increases. This is because the gas molecules have less space to move, leading to more frequent collisions with the container walls, resulting in an increase in pressure.
Reducing the volume that a gas occupies will increase the pressure because it reduces the surface area that the gas has to impact against. Likewise increasing the temperature will increase pressure by increasing the kinetic energy of the gas molecules.
Any of the following: increasing the amount of gas; increasing the temperature; reducing the volume.

It would increase.
The temperature
To reduce the pressure of a gas to one quarter of its original value, you would need to increase the volume of the gas by a factor of 4. This can be achieved by expanding the container or increasing the space available to the gas while keeping the temperature constant. Following Boyle's Law, pressure is inversely proportional to volume when temperature is constant.
To increase the pressure of a gas, you can either decrease the volume of the gas (Boyle's Law) or increase the temperature of the gas (Gay-Lussac's Law). Both methods will result in an increase in pressure due to the gas molecules being confined to a smaller space or moving faster and exerting more force on the container walls.
Both compressing and heating a gas will increase its pressure.

If you increase the volume of the container, and not the gas itself, then the pressure decreases. If you increase the volume of the gas, and not the container, then the pressure increases.
temperature increase The pressure of a contained sample of gas can be increased by increasing its temperature, or by decreasing its volume, or by injecting additional mass into it.
