for example, mathematics has several well known parts:

arithmetic (aka number theory)

algebra (symbolic logic)

encoding (language and cryptography)...

also, in british english we don't say "do the math" this is a very vague statement

part of the reason why we hate this "do the math" expression so much is because it's so vague, and so indicative of the poor quality of education that until the last 30 years was mostly confined to the soviet union and the usa
