Answer:

If you take the first example of the walk around the desk, it should be apparent that sometimes the distance is the same as the magnitude of the displacement. ... Since the displacement is measured along the shortest path between two points, its magnitude is always less than or equal to the distance.

When the object is moving in a straight line distance will be equal to displacement. For example an object starts from rest and moves 20 m north. Distance is the full path covered by the object so distance covered by object will be 20 m. Displacement is the shortest path covered by the object !
