They are both stating the same thing, and often can be used interchangeably. The difference is purely in the application, or use. If you are doing math calculations, you want a 'numerical' statement as in 2, in writing, often the alphabetical 'two' is better.

You can use 'two' in mathematics, but '2' is a shorthand method. Can you imagine trying to add

two Hundred twenty two + seventy two

instead of 222 + 72?
