Difficulty installing Angular CLI on Mac

I am trying to install angular onto my Mac's global directory, but have had no luck so far after several attempts. I've tried out the following list below:

How to upgrade Angular CLI to the latest version

Try to update your Node and NPM version to the latest. Angular 8 required Node 8.9+ and NPM 5.5.1+.
