If the pressure of an ideal monatomic gas is increased while the number of moles is kept

Question:

If the pressure of an ideal monatomic gas is increased while the number of moles is kept constant, what happens to the average translational kinetic energy of one atom of the gas? Is it possible to change both the volume and the pressure of an ideal gas and keep the average translational kinetic energy of the atoms constant? Explain.
