It rather depends on what you want to use it for! :lol: Do you have any specific trips you need specific rope lengths for? If not, you could always start with ropes which are on the long side- and cut them down later as you need to. I'd probably go for two 100ms- but it entirely depends on where you're using them!
I've always found a 35m useful in the Tamar Valley - 35m, 65m and 100m might be good way to split the rope.We brought a reel recently and split it 60m, 60m, 80m.Mammut - is that the orange stuff? If it is be aware that it is a really fast rope. (As in "Oh s*** I wish I'd remembered a braking crab" fast).

Something like 30m 40m 50m 80m might give you a lot of flexibility - and the opportunity to never need the 80m - but as you say, you'll always have the wrong one with you.
Assuming that you need around 1m for a knot, either at the top end or to join (so allowing 2m per length to be on the safe side), pieces of 3,5,6,19,17,32 and 52m will allow you to do anything of up to 100m in 1m intervals. ;)
