Why is Used + Available disk space always less than Total disk space?

root@localhost:~ $ df /dev/sdb1
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb1            1922858352  23247088 1801935664   2% /mnt/external/sdb1

used+available = 1825182752

Size - 1825182752 = 97675600


97675600 / 1825182752 = 5% this is the default reserved space for root user.
