“Arithmancy” is what they call their math classes and it’s mentioned a fair bit in the books, though understandably never really shown in the movies.
Comment on Does Harry Potter only know fifth grade math?

My wife, who is a big potter fan, told me they take traditional classes as well, but they are shown off screen as they aren’t interesting to the story.

Using OP logic, none of these kids ever go to the bathroom either.

Pretty sure they explicitly talk about those kind of classes in the books. They don’t have scenes in them, but I remember Ron and Harry complaining about arithmetic, or mathematics, or something like that.
