A table is an object inside a database. A database has tables of data, views, indexes and programs. A database can have 10 or thousands of tables.

More specifically, a table is a collection (rows) of data on a single related topic. For example, the Employees table would have employee data, each row being a different employee, but it would not have Inventory data. That would be in the Inventory table.

A database is a collection of objects, primarily tables, but also indexes to help search the tables, views that filter, select and combine the data in the tables, and stored procedures (pre-defined programs that perform specific actions on the database).
