That's because seat density for a given cabin is about two and half to three times for the economy class than for the business class. It's easy to calculate.
For uniform cross section ans uniform spacing, not counting galley size and the lav space,
Number of seats=((length of the cabin/seat pitch)+1)*number of seats abreast.
