Distance is the total amount they each walked. Zamir took a longer path. Their displacement is the difference from where they started and where they stopped. Their displacement is the same because they both ended at the same position as they started.

Sample Response: Zamir and Talia’s total distances are different because they walked different paths in the maze. Zamir took a longer path. However, they had the same displacement because they both ended at the same position.
