For the most part, Stud.io seems to use Bricklink numbering rather than LDraw's.
EDIT: Which makes sense, given they are the operators of Stud.io and want to sell bricks on their site.
I might have seen a few exceptions though, but it might be the best rule of thumb.
Some numbers for older parts might align, because both systems might have had a common precursor, but over the years, every site developed their own system. I guess it's mostly because database updates are different and also certain "needs" are different (LDraw for instance does have unprinted and disassembled parts, whilst other sites might not).
The general rules for LDraw part numbers:
https://www.ldraw.org/part-number-spec.html
Rebrickable is also a good source to comparing the different numbering approaches, they typically list other site's naming on the respective part's page if available.
Also keep in mind that the original intent was to keep as close as possible to Lego's own names and numbers. However this turned out problematic, since not all numbers are known and sometimes are contradictions in official material. Some of the common numbers that are "fan-made" (usually 3 digit or starting with an x) date back to the old rec.toys.lego days in the 90s.
