I will assume you mean that the tiles are 14 inches square and that the room is 18 ft by 33 ft.

18 ft is 216 inches, and 33 ft is 396 inches.

As a first approximation, the room is 85536 sq inches so dividing this by 14 squared, or 196. we get just over 436.4 squares. However, this is unlikely to be enough with cutting to fit. It's usual to start in the centre of the room and to lay as many full tiles as possible, then to cut tiles to fill in the borders. You'd need about 140 full tiles, depending on exactly where you start. The number of part tiles needed will then depend on whether they have a nap or not. I'd say you need at least another 21 to be sure.
