Distance is a numerical measurement of how far apart objects or points are. In physics or everyday usage, distance may refer to a physical length or an estimation based on other criteria.
a displacement is a vector whose length is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of a point P
eg : to reach your school, you have to take the route of 20 km my but as repair is going on on that road, you have to take a route of 60 km, here 20km is the displacement.
u can refer to the pic I have attached, to understand displacement better.
