True. Among the four categories of fire phenomena mentioned, premixed flames are indeed the predominant category. Premixed flames occur when a mixture of fuel and oxidizer (such as air) is combined in the right proportion before ignition. This mixture is then ignited, and the combustion occurs as a flame front propagates through the pre-mixed gas. Most common fires, like those in everyday combustion engines or gas stoves, are examples of premixed flames. Diffusion flames, smoldering, and spontaneous combustion are less common in comparison.
