The correct answer is:
$\frac{1}{2}$
$\begin{aligned} & \text { Here } \mathrm{T}=\text { constant } \\ & \Rightarrow \mathrm{PV}=\text { constant } \\ & \Rightarrow \mathrm{P}_1 \mathrm{~V}_1=\mathrm{P}_2 \mathrm{~V}_2 \\ & \Rightarrow \mathrm{PV}=\mathrm{P}^{\prime} \times 2 \mathrm{~V} \\ & \Rightarrow \mathrm{P}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{P}\end{aligned}$
