The new volume is #=151.2 "cc"#

Explanation:

Apply Boyle's Law

#"Pressure" xx "Volume"= "Constant"#, #"at constant temperature"#

#P_1xxV_1=P_2xxV_2#

The initial pressure is #P_1=756mm#

The initial volume is #V_1=152 "cc"#

The final pressure is #P_2=760 mm#

The final volume is

#V_2=P_1/P_2*V_1=756/760*152=151.2 "cc"#
