Thanks for asking this question:
Let two numbers be x and y.
Sum of two numbers: x+y = 220
= > y = 220-x
L.C.M of x,y = 99
Relation between HCF and LCM of two numbers is:
HCF * LCM = Product of two numbers
Therefore HCF = x*y / 99
HCF = x (220-x)/99
In order to find the value of HCF we need to know value of one number at least.
