Answer:

126 passengers from Trinidad.

Explanation:

Given that,

On a BWIA flight, 2/3 of the passengers are from Trinidad.

Total passengers = 189

We need to find how many were from Trinidad. It can be calculated by finding 2/3 of 189 such that,


P=(2)/(3)* 189\\\\=126

Hence, there were 126 passengers from Trinidad.
