This is a PowerPoint I use to help students understand why and how to gas match with dissimilar volume tanks.

Gas Matching
 
Very clear and good, Jim. Minor point of improvement (a leftover from physics coursework and OCD) - by using units in calculations you can prove that the final number is correct, i.e., when you state "6.4 FT3 per 100 psi" the calculation will show how all units cancel out to leave ft3/100 psi.
