by locating each coordinate.
When you find them, you move on the same line on the map until those two coordinates are both together on the map.

======================================

If you take a ruler and make one measurement up from the floor and one
measurement from the corner of the room, you can come up with two numbers
that exactly describe the location of any point on the entire wall.

If you do exactly the same thing on the globe, you can come up with two numbers
that exactly describe the location of any point on the entire Earth. You just have to
know where each measurement starts from. And the rulers are printed right there
on the globe for you.
