Box 1 of the 1098-T only contains Tuition and fees. It doe not include any other expenses, like books or room and board. It now seems you didn't know that. Based on the other numbers you provided, the 1098-T is probable correct, you paid $6670 in tuition and fees in 2021.
Your expenses and 529 distributions match perfectly. The simple thing to to is not enter either the 1098-T or the 1099-Qs on either you or your daughter's tax returns.
But if you are eligible for the American Opportunity Credit (AOC), you should claim that. That will make a portion of her 1099-Q taxable (rough estimate about $2300).
