$\huge\underline\mathfrak\green{Explanation}$

Displacement is vector i.e. it may be positive or negative. Distance is scalar, it is never negative. Therefore distance can be equal or greater than displacement. That implies ratio of displacement to distance is always equal to or less than 1.

hope it helps :))
