It means you have to solve the problem in parentheses first.
ex: 2X4+5= 13; 2X (4+5) = 18. The answer is different because
you have to solve the problem in the Order of Operations.

2) Exponents like 22
3) Multiplication
4) Division
5) Addition
6) Subtraction

The meaning is entirely dependant on the context. ______________________________________________________________________ Another answer would be that if a number in parentheses is right next to another number, then you are to multiply both numbers if it's a math problem. In some graph tables, f(x) replaces y. Variables, letters that replace numbers, can also be in parentheses.
