- The graph paper is labeled "14 by 14 per inch," meaning there are 14 squares along each inch in both the horizontal and vertical directions.
- The numbers along the top (0, 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84, 98) and the left side (0, 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84, 98, 112, 126) represent the cumulative count of squares from the origin.
- Since there are 14 squares per inch, each numbered interval (e.g., from 0 to 14, 14 to 28) corresponds to exactly 1 inch.
- Therefore, the distance between any two consecutive numbered marks (like 0 and 14, or 42 and 56) on either axis is 1 inch.
- The black arrows point to specific grid lines: one at the 56 mark on the top axis and another at the 56 mark on the left axis, indicating those positions are 4 inches from the origin (since 56 ÷ 14 = 4).
