Answer:

YES

Step-by-step explanation:

(3/8)·64 = 24 seats in the first class carriage are being used.

(7/13)·(78)·3 = 126 seats in the standard carriages are being used, for a total of ...

 24 + 126 = 150 . . . occupied seats

The number of available seats is ...

 64 +3·78 = 298

so half the seats on the train will be 298/2 = 149 seats.

 150 > 149, so more than half the seats on the train are being used.
