If etc is at the end of a sentence in parentheses is there 2 periods?

No, if "etc." is at the end of a sentence in parentheses, you only need one period. The period in "etc." serves as the punctuation for the abbreviation, and there is no need for an additional period to end the sentence.


When do you use with etc with 3 periods versus 1 period?

Etc. is an abbreviation of et cetera or etcetera. Etc., not e.t.c., is the correct grammatical abbreviation. I hope your periods etc. stop fighting each other.

If 'etc.' is at the end of a sentence are there 2 periods?

no, there is only one. ================== I can't think of any example where ending a sentence with two periods would be necessary. Not even following the last word in a sentence that is being quoted within parentheses would I expect one to employ two periods. One, I humbly submit, is all that's ever needed. ------------------------- Placing more than one punctuation mark at the end of a sentence is superfluous. It is a rule of punctuation that there be only one form of "end punctuation" to a sentence. Whether the end punctuation be a period, question mark or exclamation point, only one is required. The rule applies also when the punctuation mark appears within parentheses or quotation marks; a second punctuation mark is both unnecessary and inappropriate.
