Answer:

YES

Explanation:

First, let's find the total number of seats int he airplane.

14 + 64 + 4 * 108 = 510

The airplane has a total or 510 seats.

Half of the number of seats is 510/2 = 255.

Now let's calculate the number of seats being used and compare with 255.

5/7 * 14 + 5/16 * 64 + 5/9 * 4 * 108 =

= 2 * 5 + 4 * 5 + 12 * 4 * 5

= 10 + 20 + 240

= 270

270 seats are being used.

270 is greater than 255, so more than half of the seats are being used.
