Does Light act like a wave or a particle? and if both what is more common?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

Light has both particle and wave nature. We can't just say that which is more common. Depends on the phenomena we want to explain. For example Photoelectric effect is explained using the particle nature of light. Diffraction is explained using the wave nature of light.
