You use math in several ways. You might be measuring medication like Acetaminophen or measuring or weighing a patient.

Perhaps you need to weigh a baby but only have an adult scale. Then you will need math to weigh an adult and baby together then just the adult.

As for medication. You might need 15 cc and you only have a 5 cc syringe.

There are many more times when you need math for medical assisting, these are just a few.
