Answer:

166 meters. Displacement is the movement of something from one place/position to another. Unless the type of displacement you're talking about is “the occupation by a SUBMERGED body or part of a body of a volume which would not otherwise be occupied by a fluid”.

Step-by-step explanation:

33 + 71 + 62 = 166

The distance you traveled does not depend upon where, is about how much.
