Use P1V1 = P2V2

How do I cancel out the volume of Liters? Because it is asking for pressure.

It appears to me that you have made a typo in posting the problem OR the question is flawed. I expect the question should be "what VOLUME will it occupy at 1.5 atm?
Assuming that is right, then
P1 = 740 torr = 740/760 = 0.974
V1 = 2.4 L
P2 = 1.5 atm
V2 = ?
So 0.974 atm x 2.4 L = 1.5 atm x V2
V2 = ?
If you answer the question as posted then the final pressure is 1.5 atm.
