The iPad can still work with a crack in the screen. It may even work if the screen is split, although it may be difficult to actually read the text on the screen. Unfortunately, though, replacing that screen isn't cheap.

How to replace & Fix a broken iPad screen
Apple has a flat fee based on the model of the iPad, and while getting the screen replaced on an iPhone isn't too bad, this is one area where the large screen is a disadvantage.
Without AppleCare+ coverage (more on that later), you can expect to pay a few hundred dollars for your iPad repair. The bigger the screen, the more it will cost, with iPad Pro models approaching $800.
You might find a better deal with a third-party repair company, but if you get your screen replaced by Apple, the repair will come with a 1-year warranty even if your iPad is out of warranty. This means that any problems with the sensors in the screen several months down the road will not result in any additional repair costs. The same cannot be said for most third-party repair companies.
