How does science rely on math?

A major part of science is collecting data. There are two types of data, quantitative (numbers) and qualitative (subjective descriptions, i.e. saying a leaf is green). By using numbers, scientists can make accurate measurements and other scientists can in turn test this accuracy using math. Some types of math can also be used to explain certain observed behavior. For example, when you throw a ball, an equation can be written to describe the path that it travels.

Math is a very very powerful tool and if scientists use it right, they can learn more about their field of study.

Why is it that there are people who are good at Math but terrible at Science?

Because math and science are two different entities altogether, although math is the language of sciences like physics, chemistry(except for organic) and engineering, there are sciences that don't use a ton of math(computer science for example, there were so many programming courses that don't rely heavily on math, and the only programming courses that do depend on math are game programming courses and algorithms). Biology is another example of a science that doesn't really depend on math
