To find saved passwords on iPad via Settings:

Step 1. Go to the Settings app.

Step 2. Scroll down and tap "Passwords." If you don't see the option, tap "Passwords & Accounts" > "Website & App Passwords." 

Step 3. Unlock your iPad screen with your passcode, Touch ID, or FaceID.

Step 4. Click the website or app and then you will be able to see its account and password in detail.

If you want to check all saved passwords on your iPad and need to export them to make a backup, then the best way you should try is to use an iPhone unlocker like EaseUS MobiUnlock.
