The correct answer is:
one or less than one
When the body moves along straight line, then distance and displacement between two points is same. In this case, ratio of displacement to distance is one.
If a body moves on curved path, then displacement is always less than distance between any two points. In this case, ratio of displacement to distance is less than one.
If a body moves on curved path, then displacement is always less than distance between any two points. In this case, ratio of displacement to distance is less than one.
