Shift+9 Does Not Open Parentheses and Close Parentheses Unable to Type 9 and Eight

When I press shift+9 in Excel it opens Ribbon Keyboards Shortcuts instead of opening or closing parentheses. Letters in small images pop up next to tabs. Anyone knows how I can solve this. The only way I can open and close parentheses is by using on screen keyboard. Anyone has a solution to this?
