How many inches are 44 stiches in knitting?
That depends on your gauge. I have a pair of socks on my needles right now. My gauge for these socks is 11 stitches per inch. 44 stitches in that gauge would be 4 inches. (44/11) I also have a sweater on another set of needles. The gauge for that sweater is five stitches to the inch. 44 stitches in that gauge would be 8.8 inches. (44/5) It's a big difference.
How do you knit a 8x8 square?
Knit a sample first. Cast on and knit with twenty stitches to start, and knit until it's a few inches long. Measure your knitting. Let's say it's four inches wide. Divide twenty stitches by four inches, and that means that for every five stitches you knit, you've got one inch. Multiply that by eight and cast on. Knit until it's eight inches long. You could do the same for centimeters, just measure and calculate in cm.
Knitting 30 stitches how many inches is it?
I think your question is: if you knitted 30 stitches, how long, in inches, would that be? There is no way to tell. Different types of yarn (wool, cotton, silk, rayon), stitch up differently. The size of the yarn--fingering, worsted, bulky--would change the length that 30 knit stitches would make. Also the size of the needle would change how long 30 stitches would be. If you really want to know, knit a swatch of 30 stitches, and measure it yourself. That is the only way to know for sure.

This would be a total of 92 stitches per side.

How do you fix having one too many stitches on your needle when knitting?
The more complicated method is to tear out the row and reknit the row. If you have knitted a few rows, and you see the project getting wider, knit two stitches together. Depending on the type of yarn, you may not even be able to see the mistake. Knitting two stitches together, may make an unveven, or hole appearance in the work, but it will prevent the project from getting wider.
