In HTML, if you want to represent a numbered list then it is done by Ordered List .It starts with <ol>tag.It represents where the order is important or emphasized.The bulleted list is represented by unordered list.It starts with <ul> tag.It represents the collection of pieces of same information without following the order or sequence.

Following is an example to understand better:

<html>
<body>

<ol>
<li> Potatoes </li>
<li> Onions </li>
<li> Tomatoes </li>
</ol>

<ul>
<li> Tea </li>
<li>Milk</li>
<li> Coffee </li>
</ul>

</body>
</html>

Bulleted list is that in which no serial numbers are given to elements in list. Only dots are given in front of elements or we can say no order is given that is why bulleted list is also known as unordered list.
Numbered lists are those in which serial numbers like 1 2 3 4 are given in front of elements of list.Elements are given in specific order that's why they are also known as ordered list.

(1)Bullets are majorly used to break a long sentence into points so that a sentence can be understood better by the reader.
Numbering is used when you want the reader to follow some steps in a sequencial manner.
(2)In a bulleted list each new entry is identified by a "bullet" - often a small circular symbol - to the left of the list entry.
In a numbered list this is replaced by a number, in sequential order. Numbered list can be said or defined as the list where numericals comes first before the list point.
(3)Bulleted lists use the <ul> tag, which stands for “unordered,” whereas <ol> is used to create an ordered list.
(4)Bullets follow rule of parallelism while Parallelism isn't followed in Numbered list

Ex::
(1)Bullet List

<ul>
<li> List1</li>
<li> List2</li>
</ul>

(2)Numbered List

<ol>
<li> List1</li>
<li> List2</li>
</ol>

The distinction is that a numbered list allows you to keep things into an ordered list while bulleted list permits to put things into an unordered way. There is no other differece betwween them.
