The common denominator of 9, 5, and 8 is the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators. To find the LCM, you need to factorize each number into its prime factors: 9 = 3^2, 5 = 5^1, and 8 = 2^3. The LCM is the product of the highest power of each prime factor that appears in any of the numbers, which in this case is 2^3 * 3^2 * 5^1 = 360. Therefore, the common denominator of 9, 5, and 8 is 360.

The common denominator of any two or more whole numbers, such as 9 5 and 8, will always be one (1) because 'common denominator' refers to the denominators of two or more fractions or mixed numbers, not whole numbers. So, a set of whole numbers (x,x) would have to be converted to their fraction equivalents, i.e., x/1, which will always yield a denominator of 1.
