Step 1: When making a graph on graph paper, it is important to have graph paper with fine enough divisions to give you useful information from your graph. One acceptabletype of graph paper is Purdue Form F, available at the bookstores. Not acceptable graph paper includes pages out of your lab notebook or quad-rule paper (4 squares per inch).Step 2: After selecting a suitable piece of paper, grab a ruler. It is time to draw your axes. You will need a y-axis (up and down) and an x-axis (side to side). Typically, but not always, these will intersect in the lower left corner of your graph paper. Graphs are always Y vs. X. For example a graph of mass vs. volume would have mass on the y-axis and volume on the x-axis.Take a look at your data. One set of data probably spans a much larger range than the other. You will want to orient your graph paper so that the larger data set will be plotted on the long side of the paper. (Do not be afraid to turn your paper sideways. Your TA is smart and will know which way to hold the graph while looking at it.) Now use that ruler to draw you axes. Don't forget to label them each with a name and proper units.Step 3: Now that your axes are drawn, you need to divide them properly. Unless you are making a graph on logrithmic paper (if all the squares on your paper are evenly spaced, you are not) it is important to keep the spacing even along the axis. For example, if you decide that 5 squares is .1 cm on the x-axis, then 5 squares must be .1 cm the whole length of the axis. (5 squares = .1 cm, 10 squares = .2 cm, 15 squares = .3 cm... I think you get the point) In order to get the best possible data from your graph, you should spread your values along the axes as far as possible. You bought the whole page, now use it!
You would need two 3 cm squares and two 2 cm squares to get a total area of 35 sq cm. A 3 cm square has an area of 9 sq cm and a 2 cm square has an area of 4 sq cm.
There is no greatest value on either axis - they go on forever. However, when drawing a graph or chart, choose your scale so that each unit is a sensible measure, which depends upon the amount of space you have to draw your graph in and the largest value that needs to be shown, and then mark sensible intervals. When using graph paper, you should notice that there are big squares, ½ big squares and little squares marked, the bigger squares being marked by thicker lines. The ½ big squares are marked every 5 little squares and the big squares marked every 10 little squares. To decide the largest value on an axis, count how many big squares long the axis is, multiply by 10 (to get how many little squares there are) and divide this into the largest value you need to display and round the result UP to the next sensible measure. A sensible measure is 1, 2, 5, 10, 0.5, 0.2, 0.1 etc for each little square - the sensible measure is so that it is easy to sub-divide each little square for values that are not exact multiples so that part way along the little squares can be drawn. Each axis is usually labelled at each big square, so the largest value written would depend upon how many big squares there are. Graph paper is printed at different scales, but a common one is that each little square is 2 mm, each ½ big square is 1 cm and each big square is 2 cm.

If it is 4cm squared (area), then four squares can fit. If it is a square of length and width of 4, 16 squares can fit.
Eight squares are needed.
It depends. Some are a cm and other's are bigger. Most commonly it's a cm by cm.
A scale on a graph is what we use to measure the distance between the given coordinates. Here's an example: x=1 unit=1 cm y=1 unit=1 cm The units are the squares in the graph (represented on grids), which are, in the above example, 1 cm in length and width.
You would need two 3 cm squares and two 2 cm squares to get a total area of 35 sq cm. A 3 cm square has an area of 9 sq cm and a 2 cm square has an area of 4 sq cm.
12 squares in total.

It equals to 20580 squares fit. Multiplication of both the dimensions is done to find out the area.
