In Hinduism, Vishnu, the Lord of the Universe exists in sixteen expanding Kalas or digits of manifestation. That is, one digit of His manifestation in the vegetable kingdom, two in the animal, and from five to eight in the human, according as souls pass from the savage at one end of the scale to the highest evolved state at the other.

The Lord’s manifestation in His Avataras ranges from nine to sixteen digits or rays. The full or Purna Avataras are those in whom all sixteen rays are present. Lord Krishna was a Purna-Avatara, with sixteen rays, Lord Rama was an Avatara of fourteen rays.

What is your view on purna avtaara, see if you are ask very religiously, then answer is out of 10 avtaar nine avtaars are purna avtaar only kalanki avtaar is not purna avatar, in addition to this buddha avtara is also not purna avtaar.
If you are ask this question without knowledge of vishnupuran, then please go through vishnu puran and also Bhaktivijay grantha you get your perfect answer from it.

Shakti marg explains better the punra avtar.

Avtar start from10 Kalaa upto maximum of 16 kalaas. so those avtar who incarnate with 16 kalaa are called purna avtar.

Till now there is only one purna avtaar krishna, because he had 16 Kalaas. Ram was second he had 14 kalaas

Avataras are of various kinds. There are Purna-avataras, with full Kalas or rays. There are Amsa-avataras or partial incarnations. There are Lila-avataras.

Lord Krishna was a Purna-avatara. Sri Sankaracharya was an Amsa-avatara. Matsya, Kurma, Varaha, Narasimha, Vamana, Rama and others were Lila-avataras.

Krishna and Rama were the Avataras of Lord Vishnu. Dakshinamurthy was an incarnation of Lord Siva. Dattatreya was the Avatara of the Trimurtis—Brahma, Vishnu and Siva are three aspects of God. Brahma is the creative aspect; Vishnu is the preservative aspect; and Siva is the destructive aspect. There is no polytheism in the Hindu religion. Siva, Vishnu, Brahma and Sakti are different aspects of the one Lord.

The Rishis of yore have expounded the doctrine that Lord of the universe exists in sixteen expanding Kalas or digits of manifestation, that one digit of His life manifestation in the vegetable kingdom, two in the animal, and from five to eight in the human, according as we pass from the savage at one end of the scale to the highest evolved state at the other. The Lord’s manifestation in His Avataras ranges from nine to sixteen digits or rays. The full or Purna Avataras are those in whom all sixteen rays are present. Lord Krishna was a Purna-Avatara, with sixteen rays, Lord Rama was an Avatara of fourteen rays. Theosophists also make mention of seven rays, and so on, when they describe the stage of spiritual development of their Masters and Adepts.

It is only a blind faith in actual only God is supreme and he never required his avtaar as his powers are supreme
