Is mathematics flawed?
No. If you work within its definitions and the rules of logic it is not flawed. There are mathematical statements that you cannot prove to be true or false (Godel's incompleteness theorem), but that is not a flaw.
How long to know all the mathematics?
Longer than you or anyone else will live! Thanks to Godel, there are statements about mathematical systems such that neither they, not their negation, can ever be proven to be true. This allows a whole new family of mathematical thinking to develop.
What was Kurt Godel's IQ?

What is the plural form of mathematics?
Mathematics"mathematics" is a plural noun already, the subject is Mathematics!
What is Godel's theorem and the limits of science?
Gödel's theorem states that it is impossible to make a complete set of mathematical axioms that can explain every truth about arithmetics. This means that no matter how you define the fundamental axioms of mathematics, there have to be certain statements that are true within mathematics that can not be formally proved by using the fundamental axioms. This theorem pretty much shattered the mathematician's dream of describing all of mathematics within a framework of a limited number of logical axioms. Nevertheless, the axiomatic Zermelo-Frankel set theory is able to explain all of the known mathematics from fundamental axioms, but philosophically it is still not a complete theory. Although the theorem is extremely complicated, it can be understood by anybody with a basic mathematical knowledge.

A Weird Fact About Kurt Godel Is That He Had A Ritual In Which Case He Would "Make Love" To His Pet Goats.
If anybody know about mathematics everything can you say that he know every subject?
No. According to Godel's incompleteness theorem, in any mathematical system there must be statements that cannot be proven to be true or false. You simply cannot know!
