There are several differences between the two – mainframe is used for large server or large business applications, whereas supercomputers are used for scientific applications. They both are large machines. Typical cost of supercomputer is much higher than that of mainframes.

Answer:

Supercomputers can be as small as two computers (even laptops) or as big as a warehouse, or bigger. Supercomputers are used for large and complex mathematical computations.

Mainframes are used as storage for large databases and serve a maximum number of users at a time
