Any other point around the state has different coordinates.
Your question is meaningless, there is either an absolute logation (x/y point) or an approximate location(near the house on the corner), there can not be an "approximate absolute" location.
At 34° S x 71° W is Rancagua, Chile.
Active region number 7996 is a sunspot group, which does not have a fixed latitude and longitude as it moves across the sun's surface due to its rotation. As a result, its position in terms of latitude and longitude changes constantly.
Every position on the Earth has a latitude and a longitude measured in degrees. Changing the latitude while keeping the same longitude means you are moving north or south along a meridian. On the other hand changing the longitude but not the latitude means that you move east/west along a parallel of latitude. Lines of latitude are called 'small circles' (except the equator) because they get smaller and smaller at higher latitudes, but they are always parallel, so they are parallels of latitude. Lines of longitude are 'great circles' because they always lie in a plane that goes through the Earth's centre, and they are called meridians. Your personal meridian at this moment is a great circle that contains you, the north and south poles, and the centre of the Earth. Get an onion and mark a small 'x' on it, then cut it in two at the 'x' making sure to cut it through its north and south poles as well. The cut plane marks the meridian of the 'x'.
The GPS system in a car typically returns values such as latitude, longitude, altitude, and sometimes speed and heading information. These values can be used to determine the vehicle's position and navigation.

3° west longitude x 53.4° north latitude according to Wikipedia
At 34° S x 71° W is Rancagua, Chile.
Frankfort is at 84° 51' 5" west longitude x 38° 11' 25" north latitude.
On a graph, 'x' and 'y' are marked and measured in length or distance units. Latitude and longitude are marked and measured in angles.

The definition of global grid is a grid that covers the whole Earth.
google earth displays elevation based on where the cursor is. elevation is displayed in the bottom left after longitude and latitude. lowercase 'elev' X.
An x-y coordinate system, with the origin at 0° latitude and 0° longitude
The lines of latitude and longitude can be thought of as a grid of horizontal and verticals over the surface of the earth. The x-axis is the longitude and the y-axis is the latitude. The center is located at (0,0) -- that's latitude 0 and longitude 0. Latitude values with positive values are found in the northern hemisphere and negative values in the southern hemisphere. Longitude values with positive values are found in the eastern hemisphere and negative values in the western hemisphere.Any point on that imaginary grid can be located using a longitude value on the x-axis and latitude on the y-axis. Increasing digits on latitude and longitude values map onto an ever smaller area. Six (6) decimal places of precision is enough to map down to a point with 10 cm accuracy.
