Just like today, carnivorous animals in the Mesozoic needed a much larger population of herbivores than carnivores in order to survive. Therefor, there were far more herbivorous than carnivorous dinosaurs.
One example of this was the fact that the most common large dinosaurs in the Cretaceous were hadrosaurs, a group of herbivores.
