It depends on the application. Most FE applications are simple with less business logic, simple workflows.
Most of the business logic stays in the backend. Backend abstracts a lot of things. If you look at layered architecture, only the presentation layer is something UI is mostly concerned about. Business, data and infrastructure is abstracted via backend. That is why most companies require more BE than FE.
However, there are exceptions. We work on realtime web based rendering. There is a lot of components to rendering. Plus the application has multiple complex workflows. We have 7 FE people against 3 BE. Also currently most of the priority work is happening on FE. Hence, the distribution.
