Well, if you traveled a distance of, lets say, one million miles, then your displacement would be zero. That is the difference between distance and displacement. Distance is the total area of which you have moved, commonly expressed by using miles or kilometers. While displacement is the DISTANCE between your starting point and end point.

Differences between distance and displacement?

-- Displacement is the straight-line difference between where you ended and where you started, regardless of the route you actually took. -- Distance is every inch you covered on the way there, including every curve, round-the-block, double-back, and side-trip to see the sites. -- Distance can never be less than displacement.
