If the iPad had been set-up - and the Find My iPad feature enabled prior to it being stolen or misplaced - then if active, you would stand a good chance of locating it. 


However, if the Find My feature was not activated prior to being misplaced - or the iPad has been inactive for more than 24 hours, the last known location will not be available - and the opportunity to use technical means to recover the iPad have been lost.


For future reference, here is Apple’s advice for lost or stolen devices:

Locate a device in Find My on iPad - Apple Support

If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch is lost or stolen – Apple Support

Use the Find My app to locate a lost or stolen device – Apple Support
