These numbers tell you the absolute location of the city of Beijing.

Answer:

These coordinates tell us Beijing’s exact location on the Earth’s surface. The first piece of information, 39°N (latitude), tells us that Beijing is located north of the Equator. The second piece of information, 116°E (longitude), tells us that Beijing is located east of the Prime Meridian. If we look north of the Equator and east of the Prime Meridian, we will find Beijing on a map.
