Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mental Calculation at none against Fast Math's 6. Mental Calculation also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and iOS requirement (11.4 vs 16.0). Fast Math's advantage is update cadence (every 4 months vs every 25 months). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
