Is the banjo a orchestra instrument?
The banjo is believed to have originated in the Middle East and Africa and been brought to America with the slaves.
The original banjos were really drums with strings pulled tightly across them, which were plated by either plucking or drawing a bow across them. The first actual record of a banjo seems to have been made by Richard Johnson in 1620. While exploring the Gambra River in Africa, he wrote in his diary of an instrument "made of a great gourd and a neck, thereunto was fastened strings."
The 5-string banjo developed out of these African instruments when slaves were brought to the American colonies. The Africans reconstructed instruments based on the ones indigenous to the areas from which they had come.

Because unlike winds and brass in which there is a set number of parts, i.e. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd trumpet, the 1st and 2nd violin parts only very generally convey the composer's means, and most composers will say a large or small string section depending on what they have in mind, but composers rarely have a set number of string parts in their head, as opposed to winds or brass because violins don't carry as well in the context of the orchestra.
Background (kinda): There can be anywhere from 1 to like 100 violin players in an orchestra. There are usually 2 parts (1st and 2nd violin) and they split it half 1st half 2nd. Sometimes there are like 5 different violin parts.
Actual answer: The reason they vary is generally because of how many people are in the orchestra and they just split it. Also it is because of how loud the conductor wants the violins to be
