Sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous.
Granite is a felsic, coarse grained, intrusive igneous rock.
It is how they are formed.
geologists can study a rock sample by observing its composition, color, and texture. they also look at the rocks structure, hardness and weight.
The three major groups of rocks have several things in common. The mineral composition is the same and this is why they will all turn into each other at some point.
Geologists classify rocks into three groups. The first group are igneous rocks, the second are metamorphic rocks and the third are sedimentary rocks.

Color and texture is one way to classify igneous rocks. Another way to do this is modal classification and normative classification.
Metamorphic, igneous and sedimentary

There are three main groups: Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic.

The classification is based on the processes that formed the rock.
