If you're looking for something very basic (high school and calculus), you can check my book No Bullshit Guide to Math & Physics: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0992001005/ Extended preview here: https://minireference.com/static/excerpts/noBSguide_v5_previ...

There is also the No Bullshit Guide to Linear Algebra https://www.amazon.com/dp/0992001021/ Extended preview: https://minireference.com/static/excerpts/noBSguide2LA_previ...

Both come with a review of high school math topics, which may or may not be useful for you, depending on how well you remember the material. Many of the university-level books will assume you know the high school math concepts super well.

One last thing, I highly recommend you try out SymPy which is a computer algebra system that can do a lot of arithmetic and symbolic math operations for you, e.g. simplify expressions, factor polynomials, solve equations, etc. You can try it out without installing anything here https://live.sympy.org/ and this is a short tutorial that explains the basic commands https://minireference.com/static/tutorials/sympy_tutorial.pd...
