The average terrestrial planet has only about 10.3% of the diameter and 0.4% of the mass of the average gas giant.
Terrestrial planets have terra firma, a.k.a. hard ground. The gas giants are giant balls of gas.
Earth is the biggest of the terrestrial or rocky planets, but smaller than any of the gas giants.
The largest classification of planets is based on their composition and includes terrestrial planets (like Earth) and gas giants (like Jupiter and Saturn). Terrestrial planets are composed mainly of rock and metal, while gas giants are primarily made up of hydrogen and helium.
Bigger planets are more likely to be gas giants while smaller ones are more likely to be terrestrial. This of course is not the answer to your question which is, of all planets that may exist, is there a greater likelyhood of there being terrestrial planets or gas giants?

They are both planets !!!!
The Asteroid Belt is a demarcation between the gas giants and terrestrial type planets.
The terrestrial planets in our solar system are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. The gas giants are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Terrestrial planets have solid surfaces, while gas giants are primarily composed of gases like hydrogen and helium.
gas giants are composed of gas while terrestrial planets are composed of solid matter

One key difference is their composition: terrestrial planets are mainly made of rock and metal, while gas giants are mostly composed of hydrogen and helium. Gas giants are also much larger in size and have thick atmospheres, while terrestrial planets have solid surfaces. Additionally, gas giants are typically located farther from the Sun in the outer regions of a solar system.
The two main classifications for planets are terrestrial planets and gas giants. Terrestrial planets, like Earth, are rocky and have solid surfaces. Gas giants, like Jupiter, are composed mainly of gases and do not have a solid surface.
Rocky planets are denser than gas giants.
The main difference is their composition. Terrestrial planets like Earth are rocky planets with solid surfaces, while gas giants like Jupiter are composed mainly of gases such as hydrogen and helium and lack a solid surface. Gas giants also have significantly more mass and are much larger in size compared to terrestrial planets.
