(x+y) is the same as x+y
3(x+y) is 3 times as much. You multiply both x and y with 3 = 3x+3y
3(2x+4y) is the same as 3*2x+3*4y = 6x+12y
This is the general start of how to "solve" and do calculations with parentheses.
I am sure other people can add more examples with higher difficulty

solve the top and bottom first, as if each were in parentheses. Then Divide the numerator by the denominator
You square the number in the parentheses.
Parentheses are the following symbols: ( & ). These are parentheses. These help to do equations for example : 3+2x3=9 u are to put the parentheses or the backetts or the {} to help solve the equation so this is the way to put them in : 3+(2x3)=9. Hope This Helps!
18=3(3x-6)
you use PEMDAS which is parentheses exponents multiplication and division from left to right addition and subtraction from left to right
