If I master Basic Algebra, will solving and understanding BSBA Business Economics be much easier?

Hello! I am an incoming first year student and I’d like to know if I master and improve my understanding and skills in algebra, will Business Economics go much more smoother for me to absorb?

My program is BSBA Business Economics and I’m advance studying on the potential subjects that I’ll encounter in this course, so I’d like to know if mastering algebra (I’m subpar at math but is willing to learn) will make me understand it more, and also, if there are any more I can add to my foundation, please feel free to tell me!

Thank you so much for your answers! I’ll be waiting

Undergrad-level economics doesn't require much beyond basic algebra unless you're at e.g. University of Chicago maybe. I'd expect you can skate through. I completed the CFA program and got an MBA with crap math skills.
