That usually indicates multiplication. For example,5(3 + 4)
Means that you first evaluate the expression within parentheses, then do the multiplication - in this case, 5 times 7.
The answer to 6 divided by 2 parenthesis 1 plus 2 is nine. The problem is solved by first adding the numbers in the parenthesis (1 + 2 = 3). Next divide the number 6 by 2 (6/2 = 3) lastly multiply 3 by 3 which gives you 9.
2n2y2(2n3)(3y3)
A parenthesis is used for a number which is an 'end' of an inequality but is not itself included. For example, if the inequality reads "x>3", there is an opening parenthesis on the hash-mark labelled '3', and the number line is shaded to the right. If the number IS included a bracket is used. So for -3 is less than or equal to x but less than 3, there is a [ on -3, and a ) on the 3, and the number line is shaded between -3 and 3.

You can use the common X multiplication symbol, a dot, or use parenthesis with a coefficient next to them.
