The total area of the US is 3,537,438 square miles. SOLUTION: Given that, the total land area of the United States is about 3,483,511 square miles more than the total land area of Tennessee, which is about 53,927 square miles.  We have to write and solve an equation to find the total land area of the United States. Now, according to the given information,  Total land area of the United States is about 3,483,511 square miles more than the total land area of Tennessee, which is about 53,927 square miles  [tex]\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow \text { Total land area of US }=3,483,511 \text { square miles }+53,927 \text { square miles area of Tennessee }} \\\\ {\rightarrow \text { Total area of US }=3483511+53927} \\\\ {\rightarrow \text { Total area of US }=3537438}\end{array}[/tex]Hence, the total area of the US is 3,537,438 square miles.
