Quite simple now a days, due to the modern smart phone that everyone has.
Just find a guitar tuning app and install it, there are probably thousands, and I’d say that most if not all of them work.
It used to be a highly developed skill to tune a guitar, and it still is a valuable skill to learn, but to get you going, I’m just going to state the obvious.

E
A
D
G
B
E
The phone apps are quite sophisticated in determining the correct string and the correct note you need to adjust it too, but mistakes can still happen, and strings can snap on you while you’re tuning them, trust me, I know!
Maybe tune to another youtube tuning tutorial, until I get my one (link) up here.
