Answer:
Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion. It is never less than the displacement value.
Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position. It is either equal to or less than the distance value.
