How else but by experiment....?

Explanation:

Avogadro's Law is one of the early gas laws, and proposed that the volume expressed by a gas was proportional to the number of gaseous molecules given equivalence with respect to temperature and pressure, $V \propto n$ $Vpropn$ . And please note that the behaviour of gases in these scenarios allowed chemists and physicists to get a pretty shrewd idea of molecular behaviour simply by measurement of the macroscopic observables of mass, temperature, pressure, and volume.

Avogadro's original law proposed that $V_{volume of gas} \propto n_{number of gaseous particles}$ $V_"volume of gas"propn_"number of gaseous particles"$ ...i.e. $V = k n$ $V=kn$ ...with $k = some constant of proportionality$ $k="some constant of proportionality"$
