Hi mate here is your answer,

The significance of quantum number are as follows,

(1) PRINCIPLE QUANTUM NUMBER(n) - It signifies the size of the electron cloud. It can have values of 1,2,3,4,5....etc

(2) AZIMUTHAL QUANTUM NUMBER(I) - It signifies the shape of the electron cloud. It can have values from I=0 to I=n-1

(3) MAGNETIC QUANTUM NUMBER (m) - It signifies the orientation of electron cloud. It can have values from -1 to +1 including 0

(4) SPIN QUANTUM NUMBER (s) - It signifies the spin of the electron can have ±1/2 for each value of m.

magnetic quantum number is useful to calculate total no orbital present in subshell
we use formula (2l+1) where is 'l'is azimutal quantum number. it also useful in finding the orientation of the orbitals.
