What are the most common scales for model railroads?

The most common scales are:

Z scale (1:220)
N scale (1:160)
HO/OO scale (1:87 / 1:76)
O scale (1:48)

G scale, which is about 1:20.3 in ratio to the prototype, is larger than O scale, and is gaining acceptance, especially in Garden Railroading.
