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.

A body have 0 displacement but not 0 distance how?

If a body moves in a closed path and ends up at its initial position, it will have a displacement of 0 because displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final positions. However, the total distance covered around the closed path will not be 0 as distance is the total length of the actual path travelled by the body.
