These mathematical equations can be split up in small, easy calculations. A cpu can do 2 or 4 calculations at a time, very fast. Imagine a room with 4 mathematicians. A gpu can do hundreds of calculations (needed to calculate 3D objects), but a bit slower. Imagine a room with 300 workers. The keywords are 'cores' for CPU and 'shaders' for GPU. In the end, more slow workers are much faster than a few fast workers.
