Probably easiest to convert all measurements to millimeters and then calculate.
1 meter = 1000 millimeters; 18 1/5 meters = 18.2 meters
18.2 x 1000 = available stock in millimeters = S
1 cm = 10 millimeters
15 1/10 cm x 10 = 15.1 x 10 = Length of cut pieces in millimeters = L
S / L = number of pieces that can be made from the available stock; any fractional left overs are waste.
You can do the math.
