In the study of human anatomy (a subfield of Biology, which is part of Natural Science), hyaline cartilage is the most common type of cartilage. It is found in many areas like the ends of long bones, the rib cage, and the nose. Elastic cartilage is more flexible (found in ears, epiglottis), fibrous cartilage is tough (found in intervertebral discs, pubic symphysis), osseous refers to bone (not cartilage), and ligamentous is related to ligaments (not cartilage). So the most common is hyaline.
