we know that particles of gases are most loosely packed amongst the three state of matters and have tendency to occupy the maximum volume as the density of gases is minimum if we compare it with the density of solids and liquid.
When we decrease the volume of container, the particles of gas become important as the gas occupies more space or can say volume in the given (smaller) container.
The relative volume occupied by the gas increase on decreasing the volume of container.
