The ideal gas law is given as ##PV=nRT## where ##R## is said to be the universal gas constant equal to ##0.082056\frac{L⋅atm}{mol⋅K}##. ##R## is said to be a constant, and thus cannot change even if we change the values of ##P,V,n,T##.
I don't see how this is possible, because the way we found ##R## to begin with is to take certain values of ##P,V,n,T## and then solve for ##R##. So it seems like if we were to change any of them, ##R## would need to change as well.
