A difference is that with ordinal utility approaches, you cannot numerically measure the level of consumer satisfaction. With cardinal utility approaches, you can to an extent.
to what extent is ordinal utility approach and improvement cardinal in explaining consumer behaviour in economics
When we can not measure in terms of money but we can measure of lavel of satisfaction then it is called cardinal approach
illustrate and explain e the consumer equilibrium ender cardinalist and ordinalist?

In consumer behavior, the satisfaction that consumers get by consuming commodities is utility. A cardinalist thinks that utility can be measured, quantified, and expressed in quantitative terms. An ordinalist thinks that you cannot measure utility in quantitative terms.

consumer
Primarily cardinal utility approach has 5 assumptions. 1 rationality: the consumer is rational about his spending. 2 cardinal utility: the utility/satisfaction can be measured in cardinal NOs like 10, 8, 15, 20etc 3 constancy of money: The money of consumer must remain constant. 4 diminishing marginal utility: Marginal/additional utility of consumer decreases along with successive use of any commodity. 5 total utility: Total utility depends on quantity of commodity. 3
In the cardinalist approach in consumer behavior, one assumption is that consumers can rank their preferences for different goods and services. Another assumption is that consumers make rational and consistent choices based on these preferences. Additionally, this approach assumes that consumer utility can be measured numerically and compared across different choices.
ordinal approach to the theory of consumer behaviour is consumer's ability to rank his preference for various combination of products. It uses Indifference curve to analyse these preferences.
