It depends on what you are using them for.
Metals are very ductile, and conduct electricity, nonmetals do a whole lot of things, metalloids can do a mixture
Metals are more common on the periodic table than nonmetals and metalloids combined. The majority of elements on the periodic table are classified as metals.
• Metalloids: usually form covalent bonds with atoms of metals, nonmetals and other metalloids. They can easily take electrons from metals and lose electrons to nonmetals. • Metalloids: usually form covalent bonds with atoms of metals, nonmetals and other metalloids. They can easily take electrons from metals and lose electrons to nonmetals. They form because they want their valence shell to be full. Metals usually lose valence electrons because they want to stabilize their valence shell. Metalloids depends because they have different properties of metals and non metals.
More individual elements are metals than are either of the other categories given.
Metals are typically shiny, dense, and good conductors of heat and electricity. Nonmetals are generally dull in appearance, brittle, and poor conductors. Metalloids have properties that fall between metals and nonmetals, such as being semiconductors and having intermediate conductivity.
If you are referring to the periodic table, then metals and non-metals, though if that is the case I should remind you that metalloids are also a category. Though if you were asking more broadly about molecules, as this category would suggest, you're probably looking for organic and inorganic.

Metals on the periodic table are elements that are typically shiny, malleable, and good conductors of heat and electricity. Their properties differ from nonmetals and metalloids in that metals tend to be more ductile, have higher melting and boiling points, and are more reactive. Nonmetals, on the other hand, are typically brittle, poor conductors of heat and electricity, and have lower melting and boiling points. Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.

Metalloids, such as silicon and arsenic, are elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals. They can conduct electricity like metals but are more brittle and less malleable.
The metalloids split the table these are a diagonal group of elements, B, Si, Ge, As, Sb and Te. To their right are the non metals to the left the metals. There are many more metals than any other type of element. See Wikipedia article "Periodic table (metals and non metals)"
Yes, there are more nonmetals than metals on the periodic table. Nonmetals include elements such as hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, while metals include elements like iron, copper, and gold. The majority of elements on the periodic table are nonmetals.

Non-metals are more or less located in the upper-right quarter segment of the periodic table. The left half and the lower half (about three quarters) of the p.t. are metals.
Metals, nonmetals, and metalloids are all categories of elements in the periodic table that exhibit distinct properties based on their electron configurations. Metals are typically good conductors of heat and electricity, malleable, and ductile, while nonmetals are usually poor conductors and more brittle. Metalloids possess intermediate properties between metals and nonmetals, making them useful in various applications, such as semiconductors. Despite their differences, all three categories contribute to the diverse chemical behaviors and functionalities of elements.
No, metalloids are not all man-made. Metalloids are a group of elements on the periodic table that have properties of both metals and nonmetals. Some metalloids, like boron and silicon, are naturally occurring elements.
