What happens if L is larger than the length of some of the blocks?

I'd say:
1) Sort Array
2) pulls largest block, see how many times it divides L, then move to next largest block.

* I assume you can put two small pieces together to make another cut of size L

The simple approach to maximize number of L length wooden logs would be to start with all logs, in increasing order of length, whose length is of form k*L where k > 1. For e.g., Say logs are of length 2,3,3,4,6,8,14,16 and L = 2 & S = 8 then we would start with 4,6,8,14,16 and will get 11 pieces of length 2 using 8 cuts.
