The phrase "approximates the same" is not correct in standard written English.
It can be used when discussing similarities or near-equal values, but it is better to use a more precise expression.
Example: "The two measurements approximates the same value, indicating consistency in the data."
Alternatives: "is roughly equivalent" or "is nearly identical."
Except for the pre-Classical Helladic (Mycenaean) period of the 2nd millennium bce (see below), there was no archival tradition, although the bulk of "monumental" records sometimes approximates the same purpose of massive preservation.
Bottom: Combinatorially equivalent mesh with the CP property which approximates the same surface and its outer boundary.
The above modified van Genuchten model approximates the same behavior as the original Leverett one in majority part of the saturation region (see Fig. 7), yet still allowing the phase change behavior.
And why? Yes, you can get something approximating the same thing for a tenth of that on the high street - but that comes with its own ethical dilemma, and it can't possibly be well made and sturdy.

Because of the limitations of tank size [ 57], hybrids of different ages approximate the same standard length (approximately 3 cm) and there is no positive relationship between age and SN number at either SO-3 or the EO (Additional file 4).
