Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know -

The total area of United States
= 9.834million km²

The total area of Texas
= 0.695million km²

Percentage share of area of Texas with respect to total area of America is equal to total area of Texas divided by total area of America.


(0.695)/(9.834) * 100\\= 7.067 %

Thus, the given statement that "Texas makes up 7% of the total area of the United States" is true.
