In what situation will use 'Ones each' in english?
In an exercise book, it gave the examples as the following
1.I brought the children one each.
2. I've got three brothers and each one lives in a different country.
so is there any 'Ones each'?
if yes, Please give the examples (one each and ones each).
Thank you in advance.

Yes you can say ones each, when you use plurals.
- Did you buy the children any sweets?
- Yes, I bought them three blue ones each.
Or when using the possessive, you can use each one's..
I've got three brothers and each one's wife speaks a different language.

"Ones each" doesn't exist as a phrase. If you find it in a sentence, they are in different phrases: "I love flowers, and I plant a few ones / each month."
In your first sentence, remember that "one each" means "one, for each of them".
Edit: just saw Mike's answer - yes, that makes sense! :) I initially did a search on the words "ones each" and mainly came up with examples like mine above.
