It depends on the context.
Numbers are usually written in brackets to
- change the order of mathematical operations, for example, (2+3)*5 = 5*5 = 25 while 2+3*5 = 2+15 = 17
- to indicate functional dependencies eg p = f(x, y) to show that p is a function of x and y
- represent membership of a set, eg {1,3,5,...} for the set of positive odd integers.
Text is usually written in brackets to add further details that may not be essential to the main part of the text.
