Question 1:
73 is a prime number. It can only be divided by 1 and by itself. 

The GCF of the three numbers:
 54                               36                            73
1×54                           1×36                          1×73
2×27                          2×18
3×18                           3×12
6×9                            4×9
                                   6×6

GCF of 54, 36 and 73  is 1

GCF of 54 and 36 is 18

If we divide 54 apples into 18 baskets, we have 3 apples in each basket
If we divide 36 oranges into 18 baskets, we have 2 oranges in each basket
If we divide 73 bananas into 18 baskets, we have 4 bananas in each basket + one banana left over.

So the greatest number of identical fruit baskets we can make with the least amount of fruit left over is 18 baskets
