survey proved that there was a direct relation between foot size and math ability. How can this be so? Explain.

I don't think so.
I remember a gal in high school who was about 5' tall. A whiz.
A boy was about 6', and the tops in math.
My brother is 5'11 and lousy in math. I'm 6'1", and was good in math in most areas.
Since my career in business, 50 years, I used specific areas of math, and am good. I have forgotten other areas with lack of use, such as advanced Algebra and Trig. Percentages are easy for me. I used Geometry often in design as part of my business. Many other functions, related to business, I used.
I think some studies have a set goal in mind, and set out to prove it. This can most always be done, one way or another. Like polls and statistics.

It was age related? The smaller the foot the younger the person and the less they knew about maths - is a possibility

men are traditionally better at math (ha ha) because of their spatial ability. they also traditionally go farther in math, taking higher level math classes. therefore, mens feet being traditionally larger then womens, measurement for feet would correlate to higher math scores.
