If you're talking about categorisation that broad, then there are two categories:
Metals
Non-metals
The organization of the elements (metals, non-metals, and semi-metals) which is known as the Periodic Table Of Elements.
The vast majority of elements in the periodic table can be classified as metals. Metals make up the s-block, d-block, and f-block of the periodic table. There are even a few elements in the p-block with metallic properties called metalloids.
The "borderline" elements on the periodic table are the diagonal row of elements that separates the metals from the non-metals. They are called metalloids and the amphoteric line.
There are 117 known elements (up to 118 excluding 117 which has not been created as of yet). 17 are non-metals: H, He, C, N, O, F, Ne, P, S, Cl, Ar, Se, Br, Kr, I, Xe, and Rn 9 are metalloids: B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te, Po, At, Uuo* The remaining 91 are metals. *Ununoctium, Uuo, is predicted to be a metalloid but there is no experimental verification of this.There are 117 known elements (up to 118 excluding 117 which has not been created as of yet).
Elements in the same family-assuming family means classifications such as non-metals, metals-have similar properties.
They are metals.
There are 92 naturally occurring elements, out of which approximately 75% are metals. The remaining elements are nonmetals or metalloids.
Yes, 3 or 4 times as many elements are metallic. Note, the whole left AND bottom portions of the Periodic Table are metals.
3 quarters of the 90 naturally occurring elements are called metals.

There are more metallic elements listed on the periodic table compared to nonmetallic elements. About 75% of the elements on the periodic table are classified as metals, while the remaining 25% are nonmetals.
All pure metals are chemical elements; alloys are not elements.
Im pretty sure that there are more transition metals than metals or metalloids Logically, though, it is impossible for there to be more transition metals than metals! The latest IUPAC periodic table recognises 114 elements. Borders are a little blurred but there are about 18 non-metals, about 6 metalloids, and about 90 metals. Of the ~90 metals, 38 are transition metals, 30 are lanthanoids and actinoids, and the remaining ~22 are "main group" metals. On this basis of classification, transition metals are the largest single group
The metals outnumber the non-metals by a good margin.
Hydrogen is the most common element in the universe followed by Helium (what stars are mostly made of). On the periodic table the "Transition Metals" have the most elements. The periodic table can be broken up into the following catagories from left to right: Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Transition Metals, Metaloids, Nonmetals, halogens, and noble gases. Lanthanides and Actinides are broken out at the bottom.
About 80% are metals.
US quarters are not typically magnetic. Quarters are made of a combination of metals, including copper and nickel, which are not magnetic.
