See image below. I tried to attach the Microsoft Edge image too but that would not upload. Device is a PC, Intel Core 2 Duo, E8400 @ 3 GHz; RAM: 8GB; 64 bit-based processor System is Windows 10 (up-to-date); version: 1903, 22/10/2019; OS build 18362.778 Firefox version is 75.0 (64-bit)

You can right-click and select "Inspect Element" to open the builtin Inspector with this element selected.

You can check in the Rules tab in the right panel in the Inspector what font-family is used for selected text. You can check in the Font tab in the right panel in the Inspector what font is actually used because Firefox might be using a different font than specified by the website.
