Ideal gas law: PV = nRT

P = nRT/V

n = 3 mols
R = Gas constant, just make sure to get your units right
T = 15.0 degrees C, just change this to K
V = (28.0 cm)^3

P is the pressure, which will probably come out in Pa (N / m^2)

P = F / A

F is the force
A is the area, in this case (28.0 cm)^2

So no, I'm not giving you the answer, but with this information, it's just plug and chug.
