You could cook lunch in a Radiation Oven. But a radioactive oven may not be a good idea.

Why? Why is there more humans than there were dinosaurs? We are talking millions of years of dinosaurs compared to a smaller amount of years of humans. Were the dinosaurs all Chinese? Did the dinosaurs only have one baby per household? Were the ABC Dinosaurs afraid of overpopulation? Were they practicing population control? and why are the oldest trees only several thousand years old?

Humans have been around for about 100,000 years, 1 million tops, and the vast majority are alive today. Dinosaurs lived for 135 million years, far longer than humans have walked the Earth. 'Dinosaur' covers hundreds of diverse species, while 'human' only refers to a single species of ape.
Taken together, it stands to reason that more dinosaurs have walked the Earth than humans, and that therefore more dinosaur fossils are found than human fossils.

The population density of Humans is far greater than what we would expect from dinosaurs. Humans have a huge population density. In fact, I can't think of any animals that come close, with the possible exception of rats or cockroaches, and even then they can reach such densities because they are living off the waste we Humans produce.
And we can reach such densities because we have excellent medical care available, we can mass produce food and we can control our environment to a degree (heating, air conditioning, hot and cold running water, lights etc).
If the dinosaurs had access to all that, I bet they would have had a population explosion too.
And what does your last question have to do with it?

how many blue dino houses were manufactured inside the green house?

Shouldn't that be "Why aren't there fewer dinosaur bones?"
I thought that "less" is used for things that are measured, and "fewer" used for things you count. Though my English is far from perfect.
However, back on topic, I saw page one of this thread, then jumped to page 51, and found exactly the same question.
I have no idea what has been said over the last 50 pages. But I presume that someone has pointed out that only the dinosaur bones present at the surface that we find. Many others will still be buried in rock layers we never get anywhere near
And many others will have weathered out of rocks that were eroded away during the last few tens of millions of years when we weren't around to collect them.
That's why we only have so many dinosaur bones that you can buy them for a few quid online. Dinosaurs - Fossils of Genuine Dinosaurs
