How to change the default font of TinyMCE for Wordpress

I see this question on SO but all answers fail to be specific on how to change that.

What I mean is this: the answers say "add this" but they fail to tell where, I mean, which file and one has to be a rocket scientist to figure that out.

Can someone explain like I am five, ok, make it 3... all steps I have to do to get rid of the infamous Libre Franklin font and put Helvetica as the default on TinyMCE editor for wordpress?

Thanks

This post gives pretty clear instructions.

1) Add a new css file, called it whatever you want, like tinymce_custom_editor.css for example, upload it to the folder "css" in your theme -> wp-content/themes/YOUR-THEME/css/

2) Add a new function in your theme function.php file:

The CSS

Make a file tinymce_custom_editor.css with following code ↓, then add it to folder wp-content/themes/grandblog/css

body#tinymce.wp-editor {
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif !important;
}

The Function

Add following new function to call previously uploaded css file tinymce_custom_editor.css in wp-content/themes/YOUR-THEME/functions.php ↓

function my_theme_add_editor_styles() {
    add_editor_style( 'css/tinymce_custom_editor.css' );
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_theme_add_editor_styles' );
