proof of inequality relation for the greatest common divisor and lowest common multiple and totient of a finite natural number set I haven't gotten anywhere in establishing a proof for this yet, it is something that I worked on a while back, but I don't think it will be difficult considering how intimately related the three quantities are:
I had not been considering singltons, which do not conform as pointed out, so I apologize for having to make this edit now:
$${\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n} \subset \mathbb N \land n \gt 1 \tag 0$$
$$ \gcd \Bigl({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n}\Bigr) \lt n\,\varphi\Bigl(\sum^n_{j=1}a_j\Bigr) \lt  \operatorname{lcm}\Bigl({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n}\Bigr) \tag 1$$
Originally I had only stated the above as
$$ \gcd \Bigl({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n}\Bigr) \lt n\,\varphi\Bigl(\sum^n_{j=1}a_j\Bigr) \tag a$$
but for whatever reason added the other side which as shown by the answer provided is false.
$$\prod^{n}_{j=1}a_j= \gcd({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n}) \cdot \operatorname{lcm}({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n})  \operatorname{ if and only if}  \,{\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n} \operatorname{is pairwise coprime} \tag 2$$
Where $\varphi$ is the Euler totient function.
But yeah I guess hints are probably what I am looking for seeing I don't see why I cant do this myself 
edit 23/11/2019:
another inequality similar to $(a)$ holds:
$$ \gcd \Bigl({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n}\Bigr) \lt n\,\varphi\Bigl(\prod^n_{j=1}a_j\Bigr) \tag b$$
 A: You state for your (1) that
$$\operatorname{lcm}\Bigl({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n}\Bigr) \lt n\,\varphi\Bigl(\sum^n_{j=1}a_j\Bigr) \lt \gcd \Bigl({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n}\Bigr) \tag{1}\label{eq1A}$$
However, I agree with parafoo's question comment that suggests you meant to flip the inequalities around, as $\gcd$ is always less than or equal to the $\text{lcm}$. However, even with this change, \eqref{eq1A} is not always true. For example, for the left part, consider $n = 2$, with $a_1 = 2$ and $a_2 = 11$. Then $\operatorname{lcm}\Bigl({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n}\Bigr) = 22$, but $n\,\varphi\Bigl(\sum^n_{j=1}a_j\Bigr) = 2\varphi(13) = 2(12) = 24$.
With the right part, consider $n = 2$ again, with $a_1 = a_2 = 210$. In this case, $n\,\varphi\Bigl(\sum^n_{j=1}a_j\Bigr) = 2\varphi(240) = 2\left(\frac{240(1)(2)(4)(6)}{2(3)(5)(7)}\right) = 192$, but $\gcd \Bigl({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n}\Bigr) = 210$.
As for your (2), i.e.,
$$\prod^{n}_{j=1}a_j= \gcd({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n}) \cdot \operatorname{lcm}({\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n})  \operatorname{ if and only if}  \,{\{a_j}\}_{j=1..n} \operatorname{is pairwise coprime} \tag{2}\label{eq2A}$$
as I stated in my question comment, this is always true for $n = 2$, such as shown at Proving gcd($a,b$)lcm($a,b$) = $|ab|$, regardless of whether or not the $2$ values are coprime. As such, consider $n \ge 3$. With that restriction, \eqref{eq2A} then always holds. To see this, consider the set of all prime factors used among the $a_j$ is $p_i$ for $1 \le i \le m$ for some $m \ge 0$. Next, have
$$a_j = \prod_{i=1}^{m} p_i^{e_{i,j}}, \; e_{i,j} \ge 0 \tag{3}\label{eq3A}$$
For any given $1 \le i \le m$, the power of $p_i$ in the product of all $a_j$ for $1 \le j \le n$ would be the sum of all of the $e_{i,j}$, in the $\gcd$ would be the minimum among all of the $e_{i,j}$, and in the $\text{lcm}$ would be the maximum among all of the $e_{i,j}$. The sum of all the values cannot be equal to the sum of the minimum & maximum if there are $3$ or more positive values among the $e_{i,j}$. Thus, there must be at least $1$ value which is $0$, but then the minimum must be $0$, and there can only be one non-zero value, which is the maximum. This only occurs if all $a_j$ are pairwise coprime. On the other hand, if all $a_j$ are pairwise coprime, then the $\gcd$ of all of them would be $1$ and, as only $1$ $a_j$ value can contain any factor of $p_i$, the $\text{lcm}$ of all $a_j$ would be the product of them.
