There are a couple types of grouping symbols used in math. These are mainly parentheses and brackets. Both plain and curly brackets are used in some equations.
Parentheses and brackets are what are known as grouping symbol. They keep two or more quantities separate from the rest of the problem. For example, n-2 180. Without parentheses the problem is wrong. But add in parentheses and the problem looks like this (n-2) times 180.
Within parentheses or similar symbols, the same rules apply as when you don't have parentheses. For example, multiplication and division have a higher priority (or precedence) than addition and subtraction.Within parentheses or similar symbols, the same rules apply as when you don't have parentheses.

Same as parentheses. Brackets are used simply as a different type of parentheses, to make it easier to match the left and the right side.
if an equation is simplified by removing parentheses before the properties of equality are​ applied, what property is​ used?
