Question

What is the difference between derivative and differential?

Answer 1

The difference between derivative and differential:

Derivative	Differential
The derivative is the rate of change of the variables in a differential equation.	The differential is the smallest of differences in quantities that are variable.
Derivatives are contained within differential equations.	Differential equations use derivatives to come to definitive solutions.
It is represented by $\frac{d}{dx}$	Differentials are represented as $dx,dy,dt$ and so on

Hence, difference is clearly explained.
