What is the Difference Between Knowing and Believing?

Is there a difference between knowing and believing? Do we sometimes conflate these two things? Maybe we take our beliefs to be what we know? Do we even really know what we believe and why? Does knowing imply some level of certainty? While belief is just our best hunch?
