How to install fonts in 20.04

My fresh version of ubuntu 20.04 doesn't have the font "Times new roman" and others. How do I get them? I tried this path:

https://linuxconfig.org/install-microsoft-fonts-on-ubuntu-20-04-focal-fossa-desktop
That didn't work. I tried to restart also. I also tried

How to install Arial font (and other Windows fonts) in ubuntu?

In the comments section I found an alternative method but I'm stuck in the last step. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance :).

Alternative method from Stefan1:

sudo mkdir ~/ms-fonts/
cd ms-fonts
sudo wget ***.freedesktop.org/software/fontconfig/webfonts/webfonts.tar.gz
sudo tar -xzf webfonts.tar.gz
cd msfonts
sudo apt install cabextract
sudo cabextract *.exe
sudo cp *.ttf *.TTF ~/.local/share/fonts/
sudo fc-cache -vr

I replaced the *** with www otherwise it wouldn't work. But the next last step ( sudo cp *.ttf *.TTF ~/.local/share/fonts/ ) gives me problems. The terminal "says" there's no folder. What to do? I have a folder called usr/local/share/fonts but it's empty, is that the one where they need to go? And how do I get them there?

Here is the terminal output after trying the alternative method:

m@m-ThinkPad-T520:~/ms-fonts/msfonts$  sudo cp *.ttf *.TTF ~/.local/share/fonts/
cp: target '/home/m/.local/share/fonts/' is not a directory

After following Michal Przybylowicz's advice it is working.

I used the following command for installing the fonts:

sudo apt install ttf-mscorefonts-installer

then:

sudo fc-cache -fv to update the fonts cache and

fc-list to list all the installed fonts.

How about this one Download new times Roman here https://freefontsfamily.com/times-new-roman-font-free/ Extract the zip file. Open the extracted , open the first font file, a new window will pop. On your top right corner you will see an install button, go ahead and install, repeat this for all the font weights.
