Why are partial solar eclipses most common?
For an eclipse to occur the Sun, Moon and Earth must be in line. For a total eclipse the centers of each object must be all on the same line (a very special condition). If they are not, a partial eclipse will occur. The times that all 3 objects are aligned perfectly occur much less frequently than the partial alignment resulting in the partial eclipses. The related link below shows a nice diagram which will make this clearer.

Why does the partial solar eclipse occur more often?
Partial solar eclipses occur more often than total solar eclipses because the Moon's shadow on Earth is smaller during a partial eclipse, resulting in a larger area of visibility. This means that at any given time, a larger portion of the Earth is likely to experience a partial eclipse compared to a total eclipse, which requires the alignment of the Sun, Moon, and Earth to be more precise.
