It’s not totally necessary if you can hire someone you trust to do the math for you. However, you should know the basics – addition, subtraction, division, multiplication.
And – hire an auditor to check your math person. Don’t trust them too much.

I can’t think of any reason that you should have to know math to run a business. Unless of course you needed to know how to do a percentage markup or multiply the number of units by the cost or selling price. If you won’t need to figure any sizes or sales tax, math ignorance should not be a problem.
