Why floating point number more difficult to represent and process than integer?

In floating point numbers we have to show any number in three fields sign, exponent and mantissa. The IEEE 754 standard gives the format for these fields and according to the format Th numbers are to be shown. In case of any process we have to consider mantissa and exponent separately. Therefore, floating point numbers are more complex to represent and process than integer.
