Answer:
So, the difference is that literate is able to read and illiterate is un-able to read
Explanation:
The word literacy means “the ability to read.” By adding the prefix il-, you change the meaning of the word to its opposite. Illiteracy can refer not only to the inability to read but also to a lack of knowledge in other subject areas.

There is a huge difference between an educated human and a literate :
Literate : is a person who is able to read and write.
Educated : is a person who has received education(which is a process of acquisition of knowledge)
Above was the literal and dictionary meaning of the both.The difference could be understood by an example:
A thief has a knowledge to how to use a gun. He doesn't have an education to know how to, why to and when to shoot. Because of the lack of education(in this case it is proper knowledge of use of the gun and its future impact on his life and society), he uses it for his own selfish motives.
Now, an army man receives a proper eduction to handle a gun. He has the education of what impact it will have on a single life, his own life and the whole society. The army man is responsible for each and every bullet he fires.
This also goes with the fact that why sex education is made compulsory in schools. Nowadays every teenager has an access to knowledge of sex by movies, internet and other mediums what they lack is a proper education. Lack of sex education has claimed many innocent young lives in the past,that is why it was made compulsory.
This is the reason why right to education has been recognised as a human right in our constitution.
Therefore, knowing something, is being literate but knowledge of how to use it, when to use and what impact will it cause on human lives at large is education.
Summing it up, the proper usage of anything in a constructive way for the welfare of humanity and all the other living and non - living things, is called education.
